Baseball Upping The Ante On Hgh?

According to USA Today, Major League Baseball hopes to have in place by 2008 a blood test for HGH, otherwise known as Human Growth Hormone.
If/when the measure is implemented, we believe that the NFL will feel intense pressure to follow suit. Failure to do so could be the straw that causes the public to finally notice all of the acne on the camel's back.Already, NFLPA executive director Gene Upshaw is resisting the use of a blood test in the NFL. "There's no way I'm having my guys punched for a blood test every time they walk into a locker room," Upshaw told USA Today.

There's not a chance in hell the MLBPA will allow their players to be blood tested. Just won't happen.
