What is Stanozolol? | U.S. Anti-Doping Agency (USADA)
https://www.usada.org › Ask The Scientists
Apr 29, 2015 - Stanozolol is a synthetic steroid that is derived from testosterone and has anabolic and androgenic properties. It first came on the market in 1962. Over time, the marketing and labeling of stanozolol has been altered due to FDA requirements and changes in the drug market.

I’m waiting for some kind of ludicrously ignorant observation from Servais on this.

In the meantime...what an idiot. Beckham, I mean.

don't think SS is allowed to say anything
"The Seattle Mariners are disappointed that Tim Beckham has violated the terms of Major League Baseball’s Joint Drug Prevention and Treatment Program. Our organization fully supports the Program and its efforts to eliminate performance-enhancing substances from our game.

"Per the Basic Agreement, the Mariners will have no further comment."

Perhaps Jerry should stop signing players with the last name "Beckham".

Probably just ended his career, I don't see how or why the M's would bother keeping him at this point.

DFA with the D standing for Dumbass.

Former #1 overall pick. Another example why rooting for losses is silly.

And of course he said in a "statement" that he had nothing to do with writing, he blamed a supplement that was "tainted", made a fake apology, and said he was looking forward to resuming his career after serving his suspension.

At this point they shouldn't even say "Beckham said in a statement" but rather "Beckham said in a cut-and-paste".

C'mon...they're all taking something. Some get caught, the rest do not.

Sports are "tainted"
