I was watching a major sports program the other day and they had the sports illistrated writer Riley on it. He was asked about steriods and sports. He's the guy that's wrote a lot of stuff about steriods in baseball. One thing he said that I found very disturbing was that he talked about Mark McGuire taking Andro. Ok, point taken, I can understand his concern there. But then he mentions Barry Bonds and how he's taking or has taken creatine and says "Everybody knows creatine is a steriod". I about hit the roof! Now how can a guy who's job and livelyhood is sports not know that creatine is not a steriod? He writes all these articles about professional athletes taking steriods when in fact he's grouping creatine in with steriods. A huge portion of the creatine testing in the US prior to it becoming a well known supplement was done in college athletics yet he mentions nothing about college athletics. It just burns me that a guy who's job is writing and knowing about sports and athletes thinks creatine is a steriod and publicly tarnishes pro athletes' career based on false information.
