This is probably the most honest thing I’ve read about sports and performance enhancing drugs. Some key quotes:
NBA:
Of all the running-and-jumping sports that feature world-class athletes competing at the highest level, only the NBA hasn’t had a single star get nailed for performance enhancers … you know, because there’s no way hundreds of overcompetitive stars with massive egos would ever cheat to gain an edge with hundreds of millions of dollars at stake.
Boxing:
for the record, Keith Richards in 1978 after a night at Studio 54 could pass one of boxing’s drug tests
NFL:
I believe that Ray Lewis cheated. I believe that to be true based on circumstantial evidence, his age, his overcompetitiveness, the history of that specific injury, and the fact that his “recovery” made my shit detector start vibrating like a chainsaw..
