Published Sat, 22 Feb 2025 14:02:56 GMT

EAST ST. LOUIS, Ill. -- A Glen Carbon man who owned and operated an online apothecary-type store has admitted that his 'all-natural' horny goat weed is actually just imported male enhancement.   William Goldsmith, 48, pleaded guilty on August 24th to mislabeling drugs for resale. He would purchase illegal sildenafil citrate, commonly known as Viagra, from China and India. He would then take the drug, place it into pill capsules, and label this new concoction as 'Ma’Kava,' 'Ma’Kava Private Stock,' and 'Night Cap X.'  The ingredient list for the new drug would include 'natural' herbs such as horny goat weed, black maca, kavalactone, tongkat ali, panax ginseng, ginkgo biloba, and sea cucumber extract.

The business is estimated to have ge...

Published Sat, 22 Feb 2025 14:02:56 GMT

Sean Payton played coy after New Orleans’ 2007 preseason finale.Then a second-year head coach, Payton had an undrafted running back who had impressed in training camp and surged in preseason games.On that late August night, Pierre Thomas racked up 163 all-purpose yards, including 81 rushing yards and a touchdown on 16 carries.“He ran well, picked up some big (first) downs for us, and he’s pretty consistent,” Payton said, according to the Associated Press at the time, which called the head coach “noncommittal” on Thomas’ roster status.What Payton wasn’t letting on that night is that the Saints pretty much knew they’d keep Thomas and perhaps also knew that meant waiving fourth-round draft pick Antonio Pittman.So many years later, Payton, now the Broncos’ first-year head coach, considers this particular anecdote instructive to his roster-building ethos.“By the time we were halfway through camp, it was evident that Pierre was playing really well,” Payton said earlier t...
