Dominican Republic Source For Illegal HGH
March 3, 2009 | Leave a Comment
Hardcore steroids aren’t the only drugs easily obtainable in the Dominican Republic.
Human growth hormone (hgh)Â - baseball’s scarlet letter, is available on the black market in Santo Domingo, in Dominican supplement shops and even in the island’s pharmacies, sometimes even without a prescription.

Barry Bonds Steroid/HGH Use:Small Goods?
February 19, 2009 | Leave a Comment
SAN FRANCISCO – Courtroom 10 in the federal courthouse should be free of crude discussion of Barry Bonds’ allegedly shriveled testicles, supposed premature baldness and rumored massive head – at least that was the spirited argument Wednesday in a defense filing in the perjury case.
Attorneys for the former slugger charged that one of the government’s expert witnesses on steroids, Larry Bowers, while the senior managing director of the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency and an accomplished chemist, “is not even a medical doctor†and “does not claim to have treated, let alone examined a single individual who was known or suspected of using steroids or HGH.â€

Steroids, Baseball, & HGH
February 18, 2009 | Leave a Comment
The “Steroid Era” in baseball has brought performance-enhancing drugs to the forefront of sports.
Ever since Ben Johnson was stripped of his gold medal from the 1988 Seoul Olympics, steroids have been the main “culprit” of performance-enhancing drugs. But as the careers of players like Barry Bonds and Mark McGwire came into question, a “new” drug surfaced as a major performance enhancer. HGH (human growth hormone) has been used by athletes since the 1970s and is banned by the International Olympic Committee and almost every major sports governing body. But until major-league baseball players started testing positive for HGH, most people didn’t know of it as a major performance enhancer.
Human growth hormone is naturally secreted by the body and stimulates cell growth and reproduction in humans and other animals. The effects of HGH in humans are far reaching and include decreased body fat, increased muscle mass, increased bone density, increased energy levels and immune system function and even improved skin tone and texture. So, you can see why it might be used by elite athletes to improve performance. While supplementing with additional hormones can be dangerous and should only be done under the guidance of a doctor, giving your body all of the chances it can to produce its own HGH is a smart recovery technique for athletes.

Barry Bonds:More On His HGH/Steroid Scandal
November 10, 2008 | Leave a Comment
A year ago Saturday, a federal grand jury in San Francisco first charged Barry Bonds with lying about his use of steroids and human growth hormone (hgh), and in the ensuing months, bits and pieces of the government’s evidence have emerged during pretrial skirmishing. That evidence leaves little doubt Bonds used the drugs.
There are, for example, positive tests for two steroids, a drug calendar showing use of testosterone and human growth hormone (HGH) every Monday in December 2001, a receipt showing a purchase of a $1,500 supply of HGH for “off season” and “in season,” and a former personal manager and a scorned girlfriend who say they saw what Bonds was doing and argued with him about it.

Baseball, Hot Dogs, & HGH

 Baseball is just one sport marred by HGH use. Who will make it in the Hall of Fame and who won’t???
Former Yankee pitching great Rich “Goose” Gossage will be formally inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame this weekend in Cooperstown, N.Y. No great surprise that the Goose, a fearsome relief pitcher in the 1970s and 80s, has made it to the hall.But who will make it in years to come? There are a few obvious picks from the still-active or recently retired pool: players like Alex Rodriguez and Manny Ramirez, Randy Johnson, Greg Maddux and Ken Griffey Jr.
The statistical slam dunks marred by allegations of steroid and human growth hormone (HGH)Â use are another story. Barry Bonds, Sammy Sosa, Rafael Palmeiro, Roger Clemens, Mark McGwire and Jason Giambi fall into this tent.

The new documentary, Bigger, Stronger, Faster has been given swift reviews. Here is an excerpt from a recent article on the film:Â
Perhaps it is time to elevate the steroid debate from “Who did what?” to “What is what?” and “What makes what so bad?”
In his superb documentary, which opened in Houston last weekend, Bell asks these questions and hopes you leave the theater asking many more.
Why does the Air Force openly give amphetamines to fighter pilots to help them stay alert, while Major League Baseball suspends players for use of same?
How can Tiger Woods have Lasik surgery to give him better than perfect vision and be celebrated, while the NFL suspends Patriots safety Rodney Harrison for taking human growth hormone (hgh)Â to aid his recovery from career-threatening surgery?
Why is disgraced Tour de France winner Floyd Landis labeled a cheater for having unusually high testosterone levels, yet his sleeping in an altitude chamber to produce a high count of red blood cells is not considered cheating?

We found this HGH article on Bleacherreport.com:
Today, there is no test for HGH. The only way an athlete gets caught doing HGH is if the government happens to arrest the guy who sold it to him. Even if they catch your “doctor,” they can’t prove you did HGH beyond any reasonable doubt unless you admit to it.
So, is it really fair to punish anyone for doing HGH when, for all you know, everyone is doing it? Is it really fair to punish players for taking a substance when you’ll never have a failed test to prove they took it? Is it really fair to punish only the players who can’t afford the “good stuff” that can’t be detected by the tests done by the MLB, the NFL, the NBA, or the NHL?
Isn’t the only fair way to deal with PEDs to take them off the banned substance list until or unless you can test for them?
Rodney Harrison was punished for taking HGH, even though he never failed a test. He was punished because his name came up in an investigation and he was later forced to admit to the NFL that he took the banned substance. Had his name not come up, he’d probably still be taking HGH today.
How many other athlete’s names haven’t come up? How many other athletes are still taking HGH today?
We don’t know. We can’t know. There is no test.Â
It could be everybody. It could be nobody.
The only fair thing to do is to take any substance you can’t test for off the banned substance list. You can’t police what you can’t catch.Â

Bonds Faces More Indictments For HGH/Steroids
May 14, 2008 | Leave a Comment
 No team has wanted Barry Bonds so far this season, and with new charges being brought against him, it is safe to say that trend will continue:
SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — Barry Bonds was charged in a new indictment Tuesday with 15 felony counts alleging he lied to a grand jury when he denied knowingly using performance-enhancing drugs, like HGH, and that he hampered the federal government’s doping investigation.
The career home run leader originally was indicted in November by a federal grand jury on four counts of perjury and one count of obstruction of justice.
Following a motion by Bonds’ lawyers to dismiss the case, U.S. District Judge Susan Illston in February ordered prosecutors to rewrite the indictment because multiple alleged lies were lumped into single charges.
On Tuesday, a grand jury handed up a superseding indictment charging Bonds with 14 counts of making false declarations to a grand jury in 2003 and one count of obstruction of justice. No new lies were alleged.
