Good questions (#6)

  Do you agree that somebody should have said it? just not Jason Taylor

  None of his sacks should be taken away, he can have the title of this season's sack leader, and I would not deny him all-time sack leader if he reaches that point. Who knows how many of those he made while taking performing enhancing drugs. You cannot prove that one way or another.

  As far as winning awards next year, he should be able to. As far as I know, you have to continue to take steriods for their effect to remain. Merriman is a great guy and I would love to have him on my team, but he made a mistake and should not be able to win awards this year.

Better Question :] (#7)

As much as I love Merriman, I will have to be honest.

I agree that somebody should've said it and just not Jason Taylor.  I do think that based on his selection to the Pro-Bowl, however, that either the NFL doesn't care.

The players don't care, the media doesn't care, and perhaps (perhaps!) the fans don't care.  (Only because basically all fan voting is nulled by media and players if the two agree.)

I know as much as anyone else that Merriman won't win, but I do protest Taylor winning because of his comments.

Before the comments?  Sure.  Give it to him.  But I'd rather see someone else get it now - someone who can be a better role model.
