Wait, He's Not A Cyclist...

NEWS FLASH: MLB Players are still using illegal performance-enhancing drugs.

At what point does doping in professional sports stop being news? Are we enforcing a double standard by expecting inhuman performance from these athletes while requiring them to be human? Is it really all our fault?

Perhaps most importantly, can we still love Rick Ankiel as a great comeback story? Deadspin says yes.

Oh how I love the quote "steroids are like doing heroin, while HGH is more like smoking weed." So yes of course we can still love him. Besides the fact it was legal at the time and he obtained it with a prescription. This wouldn't be news if he didn't have seven RBI yesterday.
