Congressman: NFL's Steroids Policy 'Not Perfect'; Bill Coming Soon - Page 2

Using steriods DOES NOT guarantee you a spot on an NFL/MLB roster.

Since there is a select few that can play the game at this level regardless of height and weight why the fuss about steriods? It's the individuals right to shave a few years off there life.

Absolutely the truth. how long before they kick down our doors for mandatory drug testing? Here is a kicker, the ****ing libbies out here want all bullets to have seriel numbers now and are working on passing legislation to do just that. I would never buy another bullet in this state if that passes.

I have no problem with this....

I also think if a HS kid wants to take them they should be prescribed WITH parental consent of coarse.

The BIGGEST problem with roids is alot of the kids that take them don't know what the fug there doing or how to take care of their body while using them.

I agree that most kids have no idea what they're putting in their bodies. Combine this with the fact that you have an invincibility complex as a teen and it's easy to make poor decisions. I knew kids and I'm sure many people on the board know kids too that used all sorts of "supplements" in high school or college sports. Whether that is anabolic steroids, things like creatine or even just popping a bunch of Ripped Fuel before a game.

I don't agree with the government interfering though. It is grandstanding, politicians want the face time to further their own career. Let the NFL regulate itself.

Major league sports are PRIVATE organizations. Government just needs to keep the fug out!

Let me address the all-to-common "you want anarchy" theory. You've just fallen into the trap of not analyzing the evidence carefully enough and taking someone else's argument at face value. (Most) Libertarians have no interest in anarchy. Yes, I want the feds trimmed to their original 18 powers. What does that mean, who is going to fill in the gaps? THE STATES.

The word "State" meant "Country" at the time of the Constitution's writing. We were meant to be 50 COUNTRIES with common defense, banking, foreign relations, transit, etc. We were meant to have a common set of rights from one of the 50 countries to another (The Bill of Rights). We were never supposed to be one huge damn country.

The 17th Amendment (direct election of Senators) was the final nail in that coffin. The govt. educating you made sure you didn't understand it was overreaching. Then they took the Senate, the last way for the States to exert their own rights, and put that in the hands of the dumbed-down masses. It has worked out for them brilliantly.

I didn't fall into any trap, you supplied where your line is, I was trying to get the same out of big D, I failed miserably.

I merely offered the Anarchy as an extreme, as in, just wondering where the line is.
