Agreed. This is why the focus needs to be enhanced testing and, perhaps more importantly, stiffer penalties when they are caught (so perhaps the guys using these currently undetectable drugs will think twice if getting caught means an end to his or her career). When you think of it in this context, the penalty given to Biancone last year was really a slap on the wrist.
