Who would be opposed to drug testing in Masters Swimming? What would be the cost to implement such a program to test winners at US Masters Nationals? and finally, What drugs do you think would potentially be found?..... HGH?.... Testosterone?..... THG?....... IGF-1?..... designer steroids?

    Now that's MY kind of substance abuse! Why do people keep saying it ONLY masters swimming? I realize that I'll never be a world contender, but why does that mean I/we should not take the sport seriously? If we were talking about the irradication of a species and someone said, "they're ONLY cockroaches", well, ok--BUT I'm not a cockroach! Hearing masters swimmers say it's only masters swimming is like...well, cannibalism. Just for the record, I too am not a cockroach. Only a masters swimmer.
