it's easy to read between the lines

116 players legally obtained a prescription for adrenal or ritalin. I'm not going to lie i legally obtained one my self to get through grad school. It happens its the doctors fault for giving the meds its not the patients fault for taking them.

But if we know better, then we probably deserve it
