Default Re: Why are steroids only seen as a baseball problem?

obvious answer: the NFL has had a respected steroid testing program for 2 decades while baseball hasn't. Furthermore, reports concerinng baseballs' initial steroid testing (pre-implementation of the plan) indicated baseball did have a widespread steroid use/abuse problem (10-15% allegedly tested positive) and guys like canseco and caminitti haven't helped baseball's name. Most people probably have forgotten about lyle alzado and view tony mandarich's career as a confimation that the NFL really tests for steroids.
