Evil steroids

few weeks ago, when spring training commenced, a glorious sound was heard throughout baseball nation:

"Sploosh."

It was the sound of major leaguers flushing their steroids down the toilet. There's no need to mention any names. Players who, for years, have been suspected of juicing rolled into camp looking ever-so-trim, as if some naughty child had let the air out of them while they were asleep. "I been, um ... dietin'," these players explained, sheepishly, but no one was fooled. Steroid users were running scared all over the country and that was great news -- to everyone, it seems, except my colleagues here at the WB.

What I don't understand is how are these guys dropping noticeable weight? None of them are massive enough so that they couldn't maintain the majority of the mass they gained while juicing. How bad is their training/pct that they lose this much bulk within a short while of coming off?

My guess is that the ESPN commentators are FOS. Any major league player that doesn't have a well paid medical consultant to dial in their gear is a total tool. MLB's steroid policy is such a joke, players are worried ONLY about PCT . . . so there's no reason for them to get it wrong. Then again I bet the EQ (and Deca) boys may be having second thoughts.

MY THOUGHTS EXACTLY!
