How bad for you is alcohol? It can be both very beneficial and very harmful, depending on things like who you are and how you use it and what kind.

The dirty secret about PEDs is that, like most other substances, it depends.

A big issue is not that pro athletes are "Lyle Alzadoing" themselves, but that those lower down on the pyramid (who lack the financial means and/or medical supervision) are "abusing" stuff they shouldn't.

Not to say steroids/HGH/"PEDs" are good, but much or their harm is from "misuse."

The controlled and intelligent administration of "PED" under medical supervision is far less dangerous than let on.

HGH side effects can range from the minor joint pain, and some fluid retention to the more serious high blood pressure, CNS issues and abnormal bone and cartilage growth. It can mess with hormonal levels, causing psychological problems, and can speed up existing processes like acromeglia. There are possible connections with types of cancer, diabetes and pituitary issues.

Haha from the ESPN article, I found the quote of the Cards GM bitching pretty funny.

Cardinals GM Walt Jocketty said: "This is the first I've heard of this. If it's true, obviously it would be very tragic, along with everything else we've had happen to us this year."

Call the whaaaambulance you just [censored] won a World Series.

Jocketty's comment is awful.

I agree with redbean that people don't really care about ped's. look at the mostly "meh" reaction that people gave to Merriman and Rodney Harrison, and to some extent Giambi and other baseball guys. if they cared for a week or 2, they forgot after the players came back. nobody cares anymore about Giambi and ped's.

people do care about hating barry bonds though.
