The Definitive PED article

[Nameless]

It is not very complicated:

New forms of steroids are developed every now and then: always improved versions, harder to detect and requiring new techniques and more imagination to be discovered. Wouldn't it be from an unknown source who did give some crucial informations, we couldn't detect the famous "clear" created a few years ago at Balco and many athletes such as Marion Jones would never have been caught. Urine nowaday aren't enough to detect some type of specific steroids, that's part of the evolution, measure/counter measure waltzing together in an eternal circle.
THe laws and techniques by many modern agencies (including the Nevada State Commissions) are old and now obsolete to the new challenges posed by modern chemistry and technologies and to keep its composure and credibility, these agencies must evolve with the problem and react in consequence.
To make an analogy with the second world war: -
You develop huge big ships to send stuff to England? We'll develop submarines to sink them.
- Really? Here comes some marine charges on your head, fellow.
- Ok, here comes the snorkel, now we can go deeper where your mines can't affect us.
- No problem, here comes the new dept charges.

That's how it goes, the game of the cat and the mouse except that if you stick to a system and refuse to adapt, it's to admit that the mouse will win. Pac-Mayweather just underlined that problem, improved tests shouldn't be only good for them but for all boxers and I will never be impressed by the argument that a few drops of blood are too much for top notch athletes.
