But what I would say is, I think it is naive to assume
get this question all the time because people are like what about so-and-so in tennis yeah what about so-and-so in soccer or you pick any sport pick any celebrated figure i think people are deeply deeply deeply out of touch with how ubiquitous some level of performance dancing drug use is now when i say that what does that mean does that mean they're on it right now no it could not be the case but at some point in their career were they on it did they use it by the way this is a common thing
Did they use some kind of a performance-enhancing drug to rehabilitate from injury?
That is extremely common because it shortens the amount of time that you are on the shelf, you know, not being able to participate.
And, you know, obviously, you can, in certain ways, heal whatever is injured, perhaps more forcefully, although there's some debate about that.
But you get the point.
Like, it shortens the window of which you can compete.
I think that, you know, there's been anonymous track and field surveys.
There was one done, I think, in the, I want to say 2010, 2011.
There was an anonymous track and field survey.
And this is a world where they do like pretty aggressive testing.
And it asked anonymously, how many of you are on it now or have taken it recently?
And the answer was 40%.
Holy shit.
Now, that's also a world, again, where there is, relative to the NFL, NBA, or MLS or whatever, relative to that, a much higher degree of testing and surveillance.
So imagine a world where the guys have more money and there's less surveillance.
It is just naive to assume that the very best of the world are all not using, that they're all natural users.
Do they have incredible genetics?
Yes.
Are they, you know, savants in their sport?
