Boxers and football players volunteer for duty, and presumably know what they’re getting into.

not a fan of this knucklehead Rhoden
I don't grade this type of journalism highly. I think it at least borders on "shock-journalism" if it isn't blatent.
This type of argument is not a good closer for the topic of legal drug issues.
He has a very "light" and brief look into conjecture over a general subject of legal drugs, and then the heavy closer... It is overly dramatic. This would be a good closing argument for a call to abolish racing. I wouldn't be surprised if he built the article around the dramatic closer. *thumbs down*
