There are a lot of jobs that make you take drug tests, [/ QUOTE ] Exactomundo! And many of them are even mandated by the government, both at the state and federal levels. One obvious example is the Department of Transportation regulations. http://www.dot.gov/ost/dapc/

Re: USA Today article on the Bunning/McCain Steroid Bill
The USDOT is a public safety issue, NOT an issue of capturing criminals. I don't see how random drug testing in pro sports will help ensure public safety.
There are measures in place to investigate and capture drug users. Random drug tests are unconstitutional.

Re: USA Today article on the Bunning/McCain Steroid Bill
[ QUOTE ]
both your examples arent really all that relevant [/ QUOTE ] I could come up with dozens of others. Is there a point? It's legal, constitutional, and quite frankly, the correct policy. No one complains about the USOC, NFL or NCAA testing for drugs, what's the big deal about baseball? Who mandates the testing is irrelevant.

[/ QUOTE ] then someone should let them know what they're getting probably doesn't work, considering they're working on a teenage budget and doing this secretly. you know, maybe everything a teenager knows about steroids shouldn't come from watching rafael palmeiro.
