Stossel on Steroids: Let Athletes Use Drugs - ABC News

 

[qbert]

Great find. Many good points made.

 

[Michaelthomasj]

good report, the govt should worry about other drugs that do way more harm then steroids do

 

[grimstat]

that was good and true. Alcohol causes deaths daily, but nothing is done.

[ELIMINATOR]

Reminded me of the Real Sports one on steroids. I still thought it was really good. America needs to wake up when it comes to roids.

 

[Sesshomaru]

I fucking hate that Dr. Wadle guy. Hes such a huge piece of misinformation and lies.

 

[Pristi1340]

good find

 

[jalsmiley]

well, stossel did ok...but god damn..he had two US congressmen on the hot seat and still didnt ask them if they are so into protecting us, then why no campaign against alcohol and tobacco and if there was such a thing as lobbyists for juice they wouldnt speak out against juice either...sellouts

 

[VinNJ]

i saw that last spring on abc. i was shocked on the peice they did and ran on tv. i quess i'm just used to the hyp & lies

 

[Getheavy]

Nice find. I wish there were more mainstream shows showing the truth about steroids.

That dude is a fat fucking piece of shit i can't stand hearing him speak he needs an ass beating.

I love to see Waddlers lip twitch when he was asked "WHERE ARE THE BODIES?"
HHMM anger twitch there?? lol.
Maybe its ROID RAGE hahahhaa.

 

[salemguy321]

Wadler is an ASS! I love stossel's comment "why is it the government's business?"

Between 'Bigger, Stronger, Faster' and news pieces like this, the whole anti-steroid front comes off as uniformed, witch-hunting idiots. Which they actually are.

MLB should actually embrace PEDS...PED enhanced players singlehandedly revived the sport from the ashes in the late 90s. People WANT to see freak 500+ ft homeruns, not a bunch of strategically placed groundballs.

On a side note, many of the most voiciferous anti-steroid people I've met over the years have been morbidly obese, married to equally obese spouses (that is, IF they've managed to get laid), and spend an inordinate amount of time playing board games and reading comic books.

Personally, I think there's an underlying psychological issue with most of the anti-steroid crowd.

In my experience I have found that people who are "natural" need a means by which to validate why they are not better at their given sport. It seems like every "natural" guy I talk to would be an IFBB pro, or an MLB all-star IF they took roids.

They also abused other drugs. Not a clear cut steroids=there death.
