FWIW, it's my understanding that even LEOs are being caught using the stuff. I'm all for bad-a$$ed cops who can stop bad guys with just their general appearance. But I'm not so fond of the idea of a LEO suffering from roid rage.

- Sports Illustrated OnlineNFL suspends six players for violating NFL's anti-doping policy
NEW YORK (AP) -- Six players, including the heart of the Minnesota Vikings' stout defensive line, were suspended for four games without pay by the NFL on Tuesday for violating the league's anti-doping policy.
All six were punished for using a diuretic, which can serve as a masking agent for steroids.
The suspended players were running back Deuce McAllister and defensive linemen Charles Grant and Will Smith of New Orleans; defensive linemen Kevin and Pat Williams of Minnesota; and long snapper Bryan Pittman of Houston.
A seventh player, Atlanta's Grady Jackson, was not suspended. NFL spokesman Greg Aiello said league chief counsel Jeff Pash had asked for additional information from Jackson.
