Originally posted by ol' aches and pains View PostSo now we're equating pain killers and anti-inflammatories with steroids? Where does it stop? What about caffiene? Obviously a PED, right?
Apparently not until we've touched on legal eye surgeries.

The subject that came up was what about Lasik surgery................my answer if it's not banned and any player can use that, there can't be any problem.
Certainly can't be in the same class a PEDs which are banned.
Not sure I get your question.

I'm waiting for the days when cybernetics will give us better body parts than our natural limbs and organs. Couldn't a player opt to get artificial eyes that allow him to see better even without a medical need? Even if there was a medical need, would they be forced to get lesser implants so they wouldn't be given an unfair advantage? Here's the kicker. What if you could opt for implants that allow you to see in near infrared? What if you could upgrade your lungs and heart without consequences? It seems to me in that world, steroids would be regarded in that time much in the way we disregard greenies and cocaine now.RIP Ronnie James Dio (July 10, 1942 - May 16, 2010).

As has been pointed out the legal Peds are just as dangerous or moreso than the illegal ones.
So why?
