    Rashard Lewis on steroids

    So what? He did what he did, and we will never know his true intentions. The facts are clear, though. He had sth in his system which shouldnt be there. Its like having a beer and then driving a car without thinking about the legal limit in the jurisdiction you are in. Hungarian police could not...

    Rashard Lewis on steroids

    Its not like many other banned substances for professional athletes are not easy and legally available. Lewis is earning quite a lot of money, and one of his responsibilities as a professional athlete in an olympic discipline (--> Wada-Code) is to not take any banned substances. DHEA is one of...

    Rashard Lewis on steroids

    DHEA can be used to mask the intake of other steroids. DHEA is a prohormone and is forbidden for any professional athlete under the WADA umbrella. As NBA players are participating in the Olympics, they are bound by rule to follow the WADA code. By the way, a ten game suspension for a anti doping...

    Jason Richardson Accused Of DUI

    Be glad about your laws: Over here the police doesnt really need a reason to pull you over; they can just routinely pull you over and have you do a breathelizer test; In our town they are running Amok during the last year.

    Jason Richardson Accused Of DUI

    There are different measurement units for alcoholic blood content around the world. In the US it is measured in percent, in our home country Germany its measured in permille. Germanys legal limit of 0.3 to 0.5 therefore would equal an US legal limit of 0.03 to 0.05. Slinslin is therefore...

    Suns vs Spurs 12/25/08

    Thats true. We are fouling more and earlier, so opponents dont have the easy buckets in the paint but are shooting fts and wide open threes instead. Which makes our D more ineffective than last years. You should check again. Till the Christmas game, we gave up over 100 points for 12 continous...

    Suns vs Spurs 12/25/08

    We are playing worse defense this season under Porter than last season under DA. The effective fg% of our opponents is higher this year, our opponents average a higher percentage of the available rebounds of their misses this year and they shoot more free throws per game in relation to their...

    The Amare Delusion

    Raja Bell, this season, 3pt fg%: 48,1, good for 6th best in the league At the other guard spot, Steve Nash, one of the best pure shooters of all time. Who`s delusional again? The Amare-"bashers" or the Amare-apologists? By the way: Amare had 4 rebounds in against New Orleans in 41 minutes...

    We are in agreement that Phelps is just better as the rest. I think that (knowing the results of various studies and some first hand tries/ was on PEDs when recovering from injury/ former sports science student) as a clean athlet you dont stand a chance and you certainly dont dominate against...

    Yeah, just ask Lance or Jan Ullrich or all the male 100m track and field medalists of the past 20 years.:lmao: By the way, if you just train harder than everybody else, chances are high that you are overworking your body and your performance suffers instead of getting better.
