Being pumped up with all types of steroids and other things have worked out well for most of the NFL players and wrestlers from 70s and 80s.

Not a doubt in my mind a lot of NBA players are on HGH or something of the sort. There testing is very lenient.

Didn't the NBA stop testing for pot altogether? As for steroids they must as someone got suspended but I doubt HGH as it is so hard and requires blood I think.

I agree the NBA is clearly pioneering the anti-PED movement. A shining beacon of drug-free light for the other leagues to follow.

It's more about the quality of medical care, physical rehab, lack of advanced diagnosis/prevention and the aura around playing through injuries that made a lot of those old players into walking horror shows.

Dan has always conceded that football and basketball are games that require you to be physical freaks, while baseball is to be a game of ordinary people doing extraordinary things. I understand the distinction--hockey is similar in that you have to find the game; the game doesn't find you--but who's to declare that baseball "is to be" an average man's game?
