The Fantastic Four Fight Steroids

Major League Baseball will be teaming with the NFL, the US Olympic Committee (USOC), and the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency to form the "Partnership for Clean Competition(PCC)". The new partnership's initial goal will be to "raise funds to underwrite scientific research into the detection and consequences of doping".

The PCC's priorities will be as follows:

More cost-effective detection and deterrance of the use of banned and illegal substances at every level of sport.

Aiding the race against designer substances with reliable means of identification and detection.

Detailing the consequences of doping, from the medical as well as the ethical perspective.

Development of a widely-available, cost-effective test to detect Human Growth Hormone (HGH).

Hopefully this is the first step in the right direction to wipe out performance enhancing drugs from all sports.
