Re: Why Ordinary People Should Fear the World Anti-Doping Agency

Good point. Actually, the ordinary Joe is the chief victim of any public policy that inhibits choice made upon solid information. With available information being restricted to propaganda, as it is now, the ordinary citizen will make poor choices concerning ergogenics, most probably being exposed to risks he would not otherwise be. The other dangerous consequence concerns the excessive monitoring of steroid clinical use. Victims will certainly be those who most need it, like HIV patients, cancer survivors, etc.

Re: Steroids Not a Scapegoat for Rhabdomyolysis at University of Iowa

If not steroids then what? Obviously the players DID something to cause it otherwise there wouldn't be so many cases. Is it possible they got it from going to gaybars in Iowa City?

Re: Professional Cycling is Synonymous with Doping

Pro Cyclist — Thu, 16 Jun 2011 00:38:05 -0000

I still believe that are still cyclist who are not exposed to doping. I think a good training for cycling will enhance their strength, stamina and skills so theirs no need for them to engage in doping.

Like the police were surprised to find steroids in Ryan's home!?! Nearly everyone at the top in the WPO uses, so this should be no surprise.

DHEA is used by athletes to mitigate the side-effects of 'real steroids', such as a drop in libido. Could be what was going on here.

Why? Quite simply, elected legislators are theoretically accountable to their constituents.

Legislation is the prerogative of Governments through legislative bodies. If such bodies find merit in WADA's argument, why complain?

WADA take themselves way too seriously, the average joe doesn't care two hoots if athletes are doping, sad how much money the world wastes trying to prevent it.

Yes, Google Ad Sense does allow publishers to control the advertisers and the content of the advertisements displayed on their website.

Google allows publishers, such as The Catlin Perspective, to block the following if they so choose:

(1) specific advertiser urls,

(2) specific categories e.g. "vitamins & supplements", "weight loss supplements", "weight loss drugs & medications"

(3) sensitive areas for moral/political/religious ads and also for this: "drugs & supplements: includes pharmaceuticals, vitamins, supplements, and related retailers..."

Re: Lance Armstrong vs. Anti-Doping Movement: Who Is Really Defrauding the Government?

Great point! Aside from his competitors, USPS and other sponsors to Lance appears to have benefitted handsomely from the association (not the least of which was LiveStrong).

Re: Lance Armstrong vs. Anti-Doping Movement: Who Is Really Defrauding the Government?

Chris Hepp — Fri, 28 Jan 2011 17:30:22 -0000

I'm no fan of Lance, but the notion he somehow "defrauded" U.S. taxpayers by doping is absurd. The FDA is allegedly pursuing the theory that he committed fraud by violating the anti-doping clause of his U.S. Postal contract. That ignores the real purpose of the contract: U.S. Postal sponsored the team and Armstrong as a way of marketing the Postal Service. In other words, the better the results Armstrong acheived, the better publicity the Postal Service received. A recent AP story reported the Postal Service did internal studies that showed the value of publicity generated by the team far exceed the cost of the sponorship. In other words, rather than "defrauding" taxpayers, Armstrong and his team provided more than a fair return for the Postal sponsorship money.

Re: Blood Booster EPO Only the Tip of the Iceberg in Cycling

Millard Baker — Tue, 25 Jan 2011 18:47:11 -0000

Hi Kris,

Thank you for your comments. I agree that doping in cycling has become much more sophisticated as the anti-dopers have continued their pursuit. I read a lot of statements from those associated with the anti-doping movement suggesting that they have practically eliminated doping from cycling and/or cycling is one of the "cleanest sports". The point of this article is to point out that the cat-and-mouse game will continue with various agents including EPO, ESPs, HBOCs, PFCEs, HES/HAES and possibly EMPs. I feel the dopers will always remain significantly ahead. The gap may slightly close but the elite will dope.

I welcome any further comments and observations on any future articles I write on cycling. Thanks again.

Re: Blood Booster EPO Only the Tip of the Iceberg in Cycling

Kris — Tue, 25 Jan 2011 17:28:03 -0000

I have just been directed to this post via a link on another website. The above article does not help in the fight against PEDs in cycling for the simple reason that the quoted statement from RoadBikeReview.com is just too simplistic to be taken for real. Come on, guys! I am by no means a denier. In fact, I know doping continues to exist in cycling - especially in the Grand Tours. But the above statements are major exaggerations and simplifications of what is really happening and just destroys the credibility of the entire article. For starters, it is well-known that injecting 'fresh' blood does not result in any significant performance gain within 24 to 36 hours. Most riders even don't feel well at all!

Your website is very interesting, but this particular article is not serious.

Finally, we are now 2011 and at least in 2010 we did notice that the situation in cycling has improved. All protagonists in the Giro d' Italia had a bad or at least a not-so-good-day, and were gritting their teeth in agony like we had not seen in many years. In the Tour de France, the watt measurements have come down compared to a few years ago. Signs of improvement, which do not mean cycling is doping-free, but let's be honest.... no professional sport will ever be doping-free. Still, the Supermen-era seems to have ended. At least for the time being.

Cheers
K.

Re: Diuretic Bumetanide Used by NFL Players to Mask Anabolic Steroid Use?

Ripped Muscles — Tue, 28 Dec 2010 21:59:35 -0000

How can someone be accused of steroid use simply because they used something that may be used to dilute a urine test. All that means is that these individuals may have been hiding steroid use - or they may have been trying to lose weight, control stress, etc. If players are going to have their names implicated for steroid use, there needs to be substantial evidence, not subjective conjecture!

Re: GNC Feigned Outrage at A-Rod’s Claim that Supplements Could Trigger Positive Steroid Test

Get Ripped — Tue, 28 Dec 2010 21:53:17 -0000

No supplement at GNC would lead to a positive steroid test. Steroid use leads to testosterone levels being elevated at extreme magnitudes. If there was something at GNC that would accomplish this, I would have found it by now; not to mention others would be raving about their massive muscle building results.
