Peresonally I already have. I had dental implants and the oral surgon packed in some synthetic bone with HGH in it. I could have opted not too I suppose but it seemed pretty routine to him so I went for it.

It should be available for the players under a treatment plan that is taylored to the players injury and overseen by the NFL to make sure it is in compliance with a realistic set of rules.

There is absolutely no way I'd take this. I'd retire first.

In the situation laid out above, I'm pretty sure I would, yeah. I never understood villainizing football players for HGH use, honestly. They take an absolutely ferocious, inhuman beating every week, they get injured in the process, and if they get injured badly and don't come back quickly they get cut, and oftentimes their careers end. Yet they're bad people if they're willing to take a drug to heal faster and keep their careers from getting completely derailed?

there is absolutely nothing wrong with hgh, as it is a naturally occuring substance in your body. however, like many other drugs, when used in excess it has devastating affects on your body.
take the roids that clemens did for example. deca-durabolin is used in most countries in europe as a 100% safe birth control for men. one shot every few months and you are good to go. it also is great for naturally stimulating the lubrication of joints. winstrol is also a very good steroid, as it helps build lean, healthy muscle, not the unhealthy mass that say, a-bombs would.
as in any case, most steroids can be really good, but in excess, will ***** YOU UP.

I'd try it once, but I wouldn't inhale, and I wouldn't like it.......

Typically, it would take about a year (until the end of next season) for your knee injury to heal. If you take HGH you will be 100% for training camp. HGH can cut the time it takes to recover from injury in half.

For the sake of argument, let's say there is no way you will be caught. Your brother has a perscription for HGH and can get you all the HGH you need without any paper trail. I am asking from a moral standpoint. If you do take HGH, you will likely have a better year than if you didn't, and this could translate into 3-5 MILLION dollars more over your career.

Would you take HGH?
As a professional athlete? I wouldn't know unless I was in that situation. If someone offered me a supply right now as a private citizen? Absolutely YES. I'd like to try it to see it's effects upon my 48.75 yr old body!

NO steroid should be taken if you're a US citizen. They are as illegal as cocaine and if you take them, you're a criminal and a drug abuser/addict. We need to make this absolutely clear to all the young buck athletes out there.

Steroids are for losers.
