    So Baseball is a non contact weak sport and yet its players are still finding a way to cheat. That's a slap in the face for the sport of baseball lol. What a joke

    I wonder what is the NBA protocol for testing NBA players for PED and human grown hormones?

    Lebron, Dwade look like they took roids behind scene. MJ also look like he probably took a few shot during his career.

    How soon until the USDA start catching up on NBA players?

    Throwing 100 mph balls is weak? Hitting balls out of the park is weak?

    Oh.

    By no means am I baseball fan, but I respect their skill to the fullest.

    Here's some info:

    http://hoopedia.nba.com/index.php?title=NBA/NBPA_Anti-Drug_Program_Prohibited_Substances


    The NBA testing is pretty vanilla and guys can easily "beat the system" with the right handlers. The NBA will likely stick to close to their current policies and testing because the big beasts (national media and government) pay no attention to them.


    Edit:

    :lol:lol Wow just wow.

    MJ probably did something, especially when he was sick through the championship game.

    durant looks like the only one that isn't.

    are you ******g kidding me?

    MJ had the flu, how would HGH/Steroids help him? The only thing he was on was Gatorade. Plus steroids/HGH isn't a pill, this isn't tylenol, you can't take it 60 minutes before a game and get results. You have to cycle the stuff to see gains....


    This thread is a joke. You guys sound so ignorant right now, at least do some research before reaching and making outrageous claims.

    You're trying to make it sound like you're some expert. Get out of here. You don't know what athletes pay to bypass the drug test

    no i just have something called common sense.

    also, how about you do some basic research on steroids, HGH.


    For ***** sake you thought the USDA oversaw these issues, that's why I prolly come off as an expert to you. You have ZERO clue as to what you're talking about, it's like you haven't EVER read an article about these issues.


    You also know nothing about baseball, using stereotypes and generalizations to back your argument. **** here bruh. Don't tell me to take a seat when you're the one that needs to get a clue.

    Baseball being predominantly non-contact has nothing to do with the power hitters need to generate to drive a long-ball, or the velocity a pitcher needs to generate to throw in the high 90s.

    Sound so IGNORANT right now dude, and you have the audacity to sit there and act smug? You're a troll dude.

    If baseball players are so high and mighty why do they need to take ped and steroids in the first place?

    Your power hitters and high velocity pitchers took roids and ped LOL. Many big names players has been caught. It's a sport full of cheaters lol

    I just got you there

    You're looking at PEDs from purely an aspect of muscle size. What you don't know/understand is that these PEDs help with muscle recovery and you can have a quicker turnaround (amongst other things) from injuries, etc. Guys need to be on the field of play to earn a living. If you're on the shelf for an extended period of time, the next man is going to step into your place. No one wants that.

    Thank you for stating the obvious. Who ever said that they're high and mighty or that they don't take steroids/HGH.

    You didn't do anything but make yourself like even more of an ***, are you really THIS stupid in real life?

    Who is this clown?

    I don't care. It's not natural. It's not fair. Therefore it's cheating. If im on the field with a bunch of cheaters i would be outraged. Can you imagine if sport allow ped and steroids to be legal? Im not sure if i can look at sport the same

    Peds aren't that big of a deal. just because you take them doesn't mean you'll be as good as MJ, LJ, or Tom Brady. 

    the cyclists that did it didn't make them as good as lance even if he was taking them too.

    and there you go being uninformed again, the Las Vegas Athletic commission has exempted a few mixed martial artists from TRT testing (some who argue isn't a true HGH/Steroid/PED).


    I disagree, but that's not the point. It's already gaining a level of permissibility in "sport" as you call it. :lol:


    and btw there are natural human growth hormones, sheesh you made sure you knew as little as possible about the subject before making this thread huh brehski? nice...


    here kiddo, I'll help you out.

    NO ONE is agreeing with you, you don't even have a point for anyone to agree with.


    You don't even know what you're talking about. You're just posting....

    Uh...but only it is, HGH use has been rampant in baseball.

    And HGH is natural....it's also banned....in baseball...


    I'm not siding with one side or another, I'm just pointing out how ignorant you sound, that's all. If anything I'm saving you from your own stupidity, just quit while you're behind.


    and as far as TRT goes, my point is that PEDs (what TRT essentially is, though many would disagree with me on that issue) are gaining a level of acceptability in sports.


    Oh and yeah, TRT is used in baseball, ask Jose, or just read this article...
