[Vikings] Vikings Williamses Lawsuit To Be Filed Wednesday

The lawyer representing Vikings defensive tackles Pat and Kevin Williams tells Sean Jensen of the St. Paul Pioneer Press that a lawsuit on behalf of the two Pro Bowlers will be filed on Wednesday. “Within the next 24 hours, the players will take proactive steps to correct a harm suffered as a result of actions by the league and its arbitrary and inequitable administration of the program,” said Peter Ginsberg of ghe New York office of Crowell and Moring, an international law firm. “Neither Pat nor Kevin has ever used steroids and do not warrant this kind of treatment.” Ginsberg told Jensen that he represents several players in this matter, but Ginsberg would not identify any of the others, this disclosure raises the possibility that even more StarCaps suspensions are in the pipeline. Ginsberg also took aim at the league’s defense of the suspensions, which was handled via a Tuesday conference call by Adolpho Birch, the NFL’s V.P. of Law & Labor Policy. “Adolpho Birch is fictionalizing in fact what occurred,” Ginsberg said. “He knew about Bumetanide and StarCaps. Instead of notifying the Food and Drug Administration, he banned NFL officials from endorsing in a commercial setting the manufacturer of the product." “All he cared about was the commercial aspect of the league. He did not care — and in fact showed a gross disregard — for the health and safety of players.”
