"Performance enhancer" wasn't one of your provided categories. You said everything was either anabolic, a masking agent, or a stimulant.
These are all about burns and increasing protein synthesis. Find something about it helping a torn ACL or similar. TIA By the way the thing I bolded says it does the same thing as insulin.
I love how "help a athlete better recover from a injury. " is the same as help a child survive burns is equal in your mind.
And the NFL has it listed as an anabolic agent. You might have seen it listed as such if you clicked the link.
I did click the link. That's my point. I know it is listed as an anabolic agent but that is totally inaccurate. It has no direct anabolic effects, except in severely anemic individuals. I don't think there are many of those in the NFL. It is a "training enhancer", but they don't have a category for that. Just like HGH is believed to be a factor in injury repair, but they don't have a category for that.
Then why did you say Are you still pissed when I called out your BS about 38mm flare launchers? Get over it.
Because you said everything was banned for being one of those three things (and so HGH was in no way banned for increasing healing), but EPO isn't one of those three things. I am showing proof that the statement that banned things are only banned for being effective in those three categories. Is that really so hard to understand? And I have no idea what you are talking about with a flare launcher.
That is truly pedantic, like saying HGH is really an anabolic because it makes your ears big. When the NFL is talking about anabolics they aren't thinking of people buffing up their ear cartilage.
I think you need to write a letter to the NFL doctors about their classifications and stop wasting everyone time.
You know what? I do remember the flare gun thing now after a little thought, though I was not aware it was you. It does seem to fit with your personality. I'd suggest the following link: http://37mm.com/node/7 Or accessing ATF Ruling 95-3 directly at the ATF, if you still think you are right about that. IIRC, your thesis was that only rifled barrels are subject to ATF regulation? But I think the fact that we've proven that athletes take it with the intention that that it is accelerating healing is sufficient. I guess maybe if you provide a thesis on how it provides major anabolic muscle growth, I might consider putting forth the effort to assemble whatever academic info exists on its effects on healing for athletes.
Sufficient for what? If someone thinks that is why they take it then that makes it so. This along with most things you say, makes little sense.
LOL! You forgot that you claimed that 40mm launchers were legal. DOH! As i recall you said that as long as you don't have a grenade the launcher is not a DD. Man you really screwed the pooch there.
Well, have a pleasant evening. You certainly seem to have a lot more interest in me than I do in you.
Will do. Feel free to troll me in the next thread as well! Also if you have a link to the flare thread send it this way, I could use a laugh.
