CBS Bostons ^

Ray Lewis’ final season and Baltimore’s run through the AFC to the Super Bowl has been described as destiny or a fateful miracle, but it appears as though Lewis’ recovery from a torn triceps was aided by the use of a banned substance.

Sports Illustrated reported that among Lewis’ many treatments for his torn triceps, suffered Oct. 14, was a deer-antler spray, which is banned by the NFL.

Is that what makes this thug cry all the time? His histrionics during the playing of the National Anthem was reprehensible. I’d ban him from all forms of professional sports for that one offensive, disrespectful display alone.

A local Korean grocery store sells candy with deer antler velvet in it. It tastes worse than it sounds.

Why is this banned? Is it because people think it's cruel to the deer?

I am not a fan of Lewis, but there isn't any evidence.

This sounds more like the media trying to make news.

Good thing he hadn't advanced to using moose antlers or rhinoceros horn.

Appears that deer antlers are the among the fastest growing tissues known.....

Thus folks wanting to repair their bodies fast...look to these therapies.

Consider that Ray Lewis was drafted in 1996, he is playing at a Pro Bowl level, and there is not one other player still playing from the ‘96 draft. And he plays probably the most physically demanding position, besides running back, in the game. He’s been on something his whole cry-baby career.
