Baseball is not hard work, it's boring.
Nonetheless, you ignored the stronger aspects of my arguments.

PEDs in cycling are huge, the difference between being in the peleton or not. We see guys who make huge waves in the TDF, get busted for PEDs, and then when they come back after suspension, they amount to zero. The point is the PEDs can literally make your career in cycling. The FRAUD FACTOR is much greater. |

Enhancers in cycling revolve around endurance and recovery from workouts. The truth nobody knows to what extent they are involved. All we have is rumor and innuendo. My belief is they make a 1 to 2 percent difference which may make a world of difference in terms of overall results. In baseball, in terms of muscle mass, they make an even greater difference.

Please. Please. PLEASE do not suggest that PEDs are less of a problem in cycling than in baseball.
Because that is ridiculous. |

It is a great distinction.
First, you don't need the steroids to play baseball daily. Second, given the demands placed upon cyclists PEDs are often necessary to survive.

Here's a new one. You will be proud of this one. "overtrained athlete syndrome." However not as good as my all-time favorite: "vanishing twin syndrome."
http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/traini...ory?id=5449113 I wonder what syndrome Lance is going to have. |
