The Quest to be the Best gets Wierder

Professional and dedicated amateur athletes are continually trying things to be the best, but you have to take a look at this . . .

Baseball sent a warning to its major and minor league players last week that may sound odd, if not comical, but is a sign of these drug-testing times: stop ingesting deer antler spray.

Yep, you read right -- deer antler spray. According to the article,

. . . chemists have figured out that the velvet from immature deer antlers includes insulin-like growth factor, or IGF-1, which mediates the level of human growth hormone in the body, and is also banned by MLB and the World Anti-Doping Agency, among others, for its muscle-building and fat-cutting effects.

Pertty wierd if you ask me.
