You may have some research to back up this is rare but that is what is being reported and you don't personally know the players involved and you weren't there so don't throw the use of steriods around so carelessly.

If not, that sucks for you. But I thought hepatitis only turns your urine brown if you leave it untreated for an extended period of time, not just a common side affect of having it.

Instead, it seems to be happening in the chemical age, although of course everybody swears up and down they didn't take anything. Remember this?

Granted-exercise can cause this, but it is highly unlikely that 12 players all had this happen to them with the workout. Especially since technically coaches are not suppose to be around since it is not spring ball yet. The coaches would be the ones that would push them this hard, for it to naturally happen to 12 players with their own "free-will" team workouts, is not likely. Extertional rhabdomyolysis is rare to begin with, let alone to 12 players at the same time. They either all ate a toxin, or all injected one into their muscles to cause myonecrosis. It's sad to say, but it is the truth. Sounds like a bad batch of injectable performance enhancing drugs (ie. steroids).

Apparently it is from their bodies not responding well to extreme exercising but it is also widely known that it happens when you exercise and are not properly hydrated. this isn't a rumor, you can get it at the gazette online.
