Not to mention Biancone who was using snake venom for the same purpose.

Well yeah Bobby, that's the equivalent of taking an All Pro NFL running back with a knee injury and potentially risking career ending injury by injecting tetracaine and solumedrol in a knee so they can play while injured. Which is exactly what is done not only in the pro's but now all the way down to the youngest of kids at levels shameful to sport and society.

Congrats on the big win with #4 over the weekend.
