Subject: All this talk of doping got me thinking..Have you, or have you ever known anyone that doped? (I don't know all of them, but EPO, Steroids, Blood transfusion etc...) Would you have back in the day or currently if you were asked? I read an article somewhere about high school kids using steroids. In my case, when I was in high school we didn't know what it was. However, as life went on and I got bigger and bigger (In a fat way). I would have done anything to get in shape fast. Yes I probably would have tried something, not to get an edge on the competition, but to see results fast. I would have thought I could handle it too and quit when the fat was gone.. Our society has made things easier and easier and I wasn't willing to put in the effort.. Are the elite athletes (Cycling Baseball Basketball Hockey, Golf, football (Both kinds) etc..)) The only dopers, or is it running rampant in the amateur ranks as well? Now I definitely would not because of my first hand experience with substance abuse.. |
