Re: Something a bit disturbing

However, the American Association of Clinical Endocrinologists strongly warns against the use of growth hormone injections for those with overweight/obesity issues or as an anti-aging treatment

Elite athletes does not occur in this list I dont see the problem.

I noted adderall. Also Viagra which effects pulmonary artery pressure and improves cardio-pulmonary performance. Diuretics lower pulmonary artery pressure also. Again, if not used for approved reasons they should be treated the same as any other PED, and the point is they do not work very well anyway.

Re: Something a bit disturbing

Well now that this new report has come out, it seems to add weight to what I said a few months back, 50 games doesn't mean anything to the players and if you are not cheating you are not trying mentality that seems to be the rage still in MLB.
