every pro athlete i've ever known personally takes some type of ped.
could be anabolics, growth, beta blockers, epo, stimulants, etc, etc.
i'll never understand the psychology of the masses. my only conclusion is that fans delude themselves into thinking sports stars are heroes when the cold hard fact is, a pro athlete is an innately selfish human being. he is anything but a hero. he is accutely aware that if he doesn't do everything he can to stay on top he will be replaced - by his team, his fans, his manager, sometimes even his friends or wife.
alcohol and cigarettes are proven factually to be far more dangerous than steroids or gh in every way, yet a pro athlete earning big money is going to give up his livelihood while every other fat ass non athlete he knows smokes, drinks, etc?
the politicians sit on their fat cholestrol ridden asses smoking cigars (while not using them to penetrate interns) and drink their chardonnays and say, 'just say no to drugs.'
what a self righteous, hypocritical society we live in.
