Do you believe Bowe's story about his grandmother giving him the diuretic?

[Hammock Parties]

Seems fishy. He makes millions of dollars and he goes to GRAMMY?

Bowe wanted a sure thing. He had been overweight when he reported last spring to the team’s offseason conditioning program. Now, he was sore from the marathon conditioning sessions during the first week of training camp and desperate for relief.

He says he couldn’t afford to slow down. Haley’s requirements were tough on the body, and Bowe says now that some days were tougher than others. He says he called his grandmother, Dorothy Williams, and asked for a remedy. Something to ease the cramps he’d been having.

“I told my grandma to send me something,” Bowe says.

He says now that his grandmother keeps her “cramp medicine” next to her water pills and that Williams unknowingly sent the wrong thing. Bowe says he took it anyway. After taking a pill he says was a diuretic, a banned substance by the NFL because some diuretics are taken to cut weight or mask the use of steroids, Bowe weighed himself. He says that before he took the pill, he was 3 pounds heavier than his suggested playing weight. After taking it, he says, he was 6 pounds under his target.

“I was real light,” he says. “I was like, ‘How did I lose all this weight?’ ”

Bowe says he called his grandmother, and he says now that she had no idea what she had sent. Bowe says he thought it was a potassium supplement, which was not against the rules. But Bowe says his grandmother sent him something different — and couldn’t tell him what it was. He says now that he doesn’t know the name of the substance he took and that his grandmother doesn’t know, either.

“I tried to ask her,” he says. “She’s old.”

Bowe says he took only the one pill, nervous after the drastic weight loss. But weeks later, there was a note in his locker at Chiefs headquarters. He says he thought he’d been fined for some on-the-field theatrics.

PEDs? That's not something I do or would do. I have to be a role model for the kids. /Bowe/

For a lot of people, family is something important. If dude is gonna lie about something stupid I'm sure he could do better than a grandma concoction.

[soopamanluva]

doesnt really matter now

[kcxiv]

I am taking waterpills, you just piss so much its insane. I dont know if his story is true or not, but they are made to clean out the system that much i know. lol When you take one, they are in effect for 4 hours, but you also have big time nausea the first week you take them.

i just read the label its Hydrochlorothiazide.

Hell I'm drunk on the koolaid..and can't even read the topic, so no way grandma has hair on her chest and Bowe doesn't eat the browneye.

[FloridaMan88]

The Chiefs should stay away from drafting a player from LSU for a few years... at least.

[Shaid]

If it's not true he is a complete ass for blaming grandma. I'd think if he was going to lie he's of thought up something a little more clever than this.

[Phobia]

Why is that? Is it because every single player from LSU is destined to fail in the Chiefs system? I've never quite figured out this rationale.

Yea Dorsey & Bowe suck.

[CrazyPhuD]

Damn I wish my grandma was cool enough to keep water pills in the medicine cabinet. Mine only has roids she takes before her MMA training.

[googlegoogle]

If true then he should have said so to the NFL offices.

Lots of older people have water pills that they use in conjuction with other medication. My wife's grandpa and my dad both have been taking water pills during the last year.

What is the point of believing or disbelieving something like this?

What's it like having Carina Damm as a grandma?

[Johnny Vegas]

I would trust granny over some dude outside the liquor store sellin it.

I'm sure he did. But it just doesn't matter. Once you pop it's done. Period.

[Galileo Humpkins]

Once you pop it's done. Period.

On the contrary, I've heard that once you pop, the fun don't stop.

[soundmind]

Where did I put that blasted Bullsh*t Buzzer I got for Christmas last year....

Why does anything we feel have a point? My gut reaction was "this is fishy."

[bevischief]

That is a new low, who does he blame the drops on?

[Pioli Zombie]

Its better than the package Morgan Freeman gives HIS grandchildren.

I'm just going to pretend I didn't click back into this thread for the disappointment. Leaving now, basking in the beauty of the original Freeman quip.

[the Talking Can]

that's one of the dumbest lies of all time

[Royal Fanatic]

If it's a lie, he's a douchebag for throwing grandma under the bus.

If it's true, he's a douchbag for hiding behind grandma's skirt.

He should have left grandma out of it.

[DumbHillbillies]

Bowe you fail. I don't think its possible to urinate that much weight off with just one pill. It would have to be a very, very high dose. Secondly, why would drag your grandmother into this.:shake:

Granny: Dwayne baby, I'm gonna whoop your ass for f*cking up my rep. Go get grandma her belt.

[DumbHillbillies]

that's one of the dumbest lies of all time

LMAO So true and unnecessary.

[Easy 6]

Not for one second could i believe such an outlandish excuse, when i first read this a few days ago i could hardly imagine a more childish fabrication.

Dwayne, you can still Rule the World... but you better get right with God ASAP.

'Its Grandmama's fault...' = garbage :shake:.
