Athletes pop ****** to help onfield performance

Roger Clemens, whose claims he never took steroids are under federal investigation, has apparently discovered the benefits of another performance-enhancing drug sweeping the sports world -viiagra. Clemens stashed the clearly marked, diamond-shaped pills in a GNC vitamin bottle in his locker at Yankee Stadium, according to a source familiar with the clubhouse, perhaps keeping the drug undercover to avoid the inevitable wisecracks about all the girlfriends he needed to please. Clemens wasn't alone. The pitcher, who is believed to have scored the drug from a teammate, joined the burgeoning number of athletes who have turned Vitamin V and its over-the-counter substitutes into one of the hottest drugs in locker rooms.

The drug is so widely used for off-label purposes that it has drawn the attention of anti-doping officials and law-enforcement agencies in the United States and beyond.
"All my athletes took it," BALCO founder Victor Conte, whose acolytes included Jason Giambi, Barry Bonds and Marion Jones, said of an over-the-counter supplement he claimed mimicked the effects of viiagra.
"It's bigger than creatine. It's the biggest product in nutritional supplements."-- NY Daily News

Re: Athletes pop ****** to help onfield performance

Supposedly it increases endurance; at least, that was what ESPN was reporting yesterday. Those claims have not been tested or verified, though, and the substance is not illegal and has not been banned by baseball. So at this point, it's nothing more than the latest news item in the continuing Clemens witch-hunt and a gross invasion of his privacy. But Conte's comments do make me believe that this particular "performance enhancer" will be looked at very closely in the near future.

Re: Athletes pop ****** to help onfield performance

Ball players have big egos... They would rather say to anyone, especially the wives it helps "on field performance" Then admit what they are really using it for!
