Spanos swats MV talk; expert: PED use rampant

Good morning.

Drug use among NFL players is the first topic today.

Describing the use of banned substances as "rampant," an expert said he would nab a large number of offenders if he had the power to carry out drug testing.

BALCO founder Victor Conte also said the League condones the use of banned substances meant to boost training and performance.

I think the current testing is designed not to catch people. There's a lack of genuine interest in doing that simply because it's very bad for business. If they would let me be the king and for a period of time and determine what tests were performed and when those samples were collected and how to use intelligence and target test, I'd be busting people like crazy.
