If you play professional sports, shouldn't you *check*? It's an adverse drug interaction. With your job.
But? There's always a but. When this is over, can we have a big 'but' moratorium?

The Union has been advising them to only take drugs from the team doctor. I'm pretty sure Manny knew he was cheating and didn't take this drug by accident. And I say that as a Manny fan who would rather believe he's capable of putting up Hall of Fame numbers without assistance.

It's a drug whose legitimate medical use is pretty much limited to jump starting testosterone production for fertility reasons or conditions that cause testosterone production to shut down. One of those conditions is, of course, taking steroids. It's also used off label for a controversial weight loss program. You note that he said it was to treat an unnamed medical condition. I guess he didn't want to say it was to treat man boobs and in inability to get it up.

I find I don't care about drugs in sports. Yeah, they're wrecking their bodies but they feel the costs are worth it. Spectators want the big plays. The human body can't consistently give the big performances the audience wants. Then the world finds out what's necessary to give the spectacle and has a hissy fit.
This isn't a case of back alley dealers giving sniffling, desperate junkies their next hit. This is a case of aware grown-ups doing what they think they need to to stay marketable. I think the sports organization powers that be operate on a principle of "Sufficient until the day we're caught, then we sacrifice the schmuck."

So it turns out that SHOUT Wipes do a fairly decent job at cleaning blood stains.
