I believe that testing for roids should be a decision based primarily by the coaching staff. They know these kids capabilities better than anyone. If a kid is putting up huge numbers all of a sudden, showing signs of common sides such as acne, mood swings, depression, hair loss, or even nipple sensitivity then the coach should test that kid, not eveyone.

Dale, I agree with 99.9% of what you have said, but, what if the coaches are the ones supplying the student athletes. I know that sounds sad but is true. On a lighter note, how would anyone know if someone has nipple sensitivity?

Don't believe everything you have read on steroids. I know alot of teenagers with the symptoms you mentioned. Its called puberty. However i know plenty of guys who do take steroids and don't have any of the side effects you mentioned. I played college ball with quite a few users. I also compete in powerlifting and theres alot of users there as well. When i was in Germany alot of the locals bought, sold and used steroids and never had any of the symptoms. If your going to test it has to be random.
