Very interesting especially considering that lid is about to blow on drug scandal. Article shows effectiveness of drugs.

Interesting how news stories develop. Barry Bonds' trainer has his front door broken down in drug search , but it's not a major news story. Story will probably develop when names of track athletes testing positive are disclosed.

Also what should be allowed for medical treatment? The NBA is allowing Alonzo Mourning to take EPO for anemia. Mourning is featured on Procrit web site.

The news of the last week with more bombshells to be dropped shortly coupled with the Outside story paint a pretty dark picture, if we want to believe that everyone is competing clean and drug free.

I am sure that there are more than a few athletes, sports offcials, agents and many other people associated with a number of different sports who are having huge nervous sweats right now. Sad thing is that the Olympic enduarnec sports( Athletics, swimming, triathlon, XC-Skiing etc . .) will get hit hardest while the team professional sports will figure out some spin story or other diversion tactic to deflect anything negative.
