[QUOTE="jaybadger82, post: 504894, member: 6211"] This gets at the problem with regulating many of these substances as performance enhancers. Some of the restrictions (such as Adderall) come off as arbitrary. [But I still suspect many supposed Adderall suspensions are a cover for something else. The idea that these guys can't obtain a prescription is a joke. Period.] Football is already dangerous and nobody wants substances like HGH compounding that danger. -It's a good idea to police this stuff but regulating PEDs can get tricky. For example, I think banned substances make sense as a way to hasten recovery from some serious injuries. This is purely hypothetical (of course), but if a regiment of banned substances helps AP recover from a serious knee injury by reducing recovery/rehabilitation time, it seems a bit obtuse to argue that he shouldn't be allowed to. Think Ray Lewis and Deer Antler Spray. [I]I don't like the idea of players juicing regularly to enhance their baseline abilities but I'm receptive to the use of banned substances in order to aid the recovery process.[/I] [/QUOTE]
