I just watched this last night. http://www.biggerstrongerfastermovie.com/

Awesome movie. Well made and entertaining. Anyone else see this yet? What did you think?

I thought it was a great movie! Explored many, many facets of the use of steroids. It definitely breaks the "magic mirror" of people seeing what they want to see when it comes to athletics. People telling me the Jamaican sprinters didn't use drugs make me die laughing.

Another good work is "Speed Trap" by Charlie Francis. Slightly biased but really a very good look at many of the hurdles for the sport programs and athletes in this whole fiasco.
 
Watching it right now actually... :P

I've come to the opinion that no matter what you know about a subject, and if there are two sides to it, in which case, this is a grey issue that people try to black an white, then you're going to have your mind made up before you even see the evidence of either side.

Entertaining nonetheless.

As a steroid user myself, I loved the movie. I found it refreshing. Not the biased b.s. I thought it might be. It was very balanced, and gave BOTH sides a fair shot. Amazing (but not surprising) that the people in charge of MAKING THE LAWS know next to nothing about steroids. I mean shit, congressman Waxman, who was a big voice in the steroid debates did not even know the LEGAL AGE FOR ALCOHOL consumption. What's up with that? I remain optimistic that ONE DAY the laws may see some legitimate reform that will favor the responsible steroid user. There was a time after all when alcohol was illegal, and for over a decade. The laws, thanks to the "black market" only make getting steroids easier though. LOL, that's the real irony. Prohibition, and/or banning things never works. The people who want the 'contraband' will find a way to get it. Competition, and a desire on the sources' part to provide the best product at the best price ensures price wars.

The general rule of supply vs. demand is that when the perceived supply of something is down, demand goes way up. Also, when you make something "illegal", or put it in the "hands off" category, people get curious. Curiosity drives people to learn more. People who would otherwise never give steroids a second thought for example, now want to know what all the fuss is about. LOL. Silly lawmakers.

Something else. Steroids, the ones being discussed here anyway, are just hormones. A synthetic version with some "tweaks", of the male hormone testosterone. There are many versions of this hormone, because there are so many different ways to manipulate it to achieve different results. So many things that are LEGAL are much more dangerous. What we really need is a bunch of alcoholic sports figures to emerge. No wait, there's too much money in alcohol sales/taxes for the government to go there again.

You're forgetting a large amount of bootleg liquor was sold to government officials, and there were wars being fought between the underworld and the "law".

Until we see roid running across state borders and gangland killings over them, oh, and some people in the House using them behind closed doors, they'll never be legal in the US.

I wouldn't hold my breath though. They're all old enough to get "anti-aging" hormone replacement therapy anyway. :-D

cheers,
