Sick must be protected by AFL drugs code
Posted Byi steroids
The illicit drugs policy introduced by the AFL in 2005 emphasized upon confidentiality for avoiding the risk of endangering a player’s health and affected  chances of rehabilitation but it failed to deliver its core objective after Hawthorn’s Travis Tuck was named, fined and suspended.
Tuck was not addicted to drugs but had a mental health issue and will possibly be left betrayed by a policy that was contrived and compromised from birth.
The undiluted arrogance of AFL has surely betrayed Tuck and there are calls to change the illicit drugs policy of the league on an immediate basis.

Disgraced Jones initiates basketball career
Posted Byi steroids
The former sprinter, Marion Jones, has signed for the Tulsa Shock, Women’s National Basketball Association team, and expressed hope for launching a new career after she lost five Olympic medals for using steroids and being jailed for lying to federal prosecutors.
Jones spent six months in a federal prison after she lied about steroids and her role in a cheque fraud.
Jones may have been successful with athletics but her professional stints affected with serious doping charges are bound to have a negative impact on how sport fans accept her.

Sammy Sosa’s bleached skin – Steroids or Rejuvenation
Posted Byi steroids
Sammy Sosa, the former major league baseball star, looks different lately. The star was recently seen with a surprising, comically light skin pigmentation on him that leads to speculation about whether this change in skin color is because of steroids or skin rejuvenation.
The Chicago Tribune quotes Rebecca Polihronis, an acquaintance of Sosa, says that Sosa has gone through a rejuvenation process for his skin.
It is speculated that the change in skin color could be a possible complication from use of steroids by Sosa during his baseball years.

Radomski told ESPN that a box of steroids and HGH were given to Justice during a ride to the airport after the former Braves slugger finished playing for the New York Yankees in the 2000 World Series.

Pakistan has more problems than just match fixing
Posted Byi steroids
Cricket is a matter of special pride in Pakistan and cricketers from the country have done their level best to portray a positive image of the country besides providing a source of hope for those whose everyday life is both tedious and joyless.
This is best evident from the fact that Pakistanis literally dance on the street when the Pakistan cricket team wins and burn effigies when the team loses a game.
It is, however, a breather for the Pakistanis that former World Cup winning captain Younis Khan and Shahid Afridi, both fearless Pathans schooled in the honor code have not been named in the match fixing scandals.
