THG And The NFL

December 3, 2003 | ISSUE 39•47

A string of scandals has prompted the NFL to impose stricter testing standards for performance-enhancing drugs, especially the steroid THG. What do you think?

  • Sports-wise, I don't have any experience with performance-enhancing drugs...only the spectation-enhancing kind.

    Jesse Scott
    Painter

  • Huh. So, Bill Romanowski tested positive for high levels of THUG?

    Tammy Rinaldi

  • I'm glad drugs are out of the hands of radio hosts and into the hands of athletes, where they belong.

    Robert Neighbors
    Statistician

  • It's admirable that those athletes only use drugs that enhance performance. Today's kids could learn a lot from these role models.

    Patty Grubner
    Convention Planner

  • Apparently, the type of performance-enhancing drugs the Raiders were using aren't the kind that help you pressure the quarterback, stop the run, or establish a goddamn passing game.

  • THG? It's harmless. I use it to clean my coffee maker. I don't see why everyone's so RAHRRRRR!
