Pipe down. Every grocery, drug and convenience store in the U.S. sells cold remedies with pseudoephedrine in them. Professional athletes should know to avoid coffee, ginseng, ma huang, ephedrine and pseudoephedrine, among other common and not-so-common substances. This awareness is part of being professional. This has been covered many times on the list. Starbuck's and Runner's World have nothing to do with athletic performance or any athletes good enough to be drug-tested. /Brian McEwen -----Original Message----- From: Harold Richards [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, January 30, 2002 10:55 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: t-and-f: NYT - "U.S. Athletes Must Guess on Supplements" Chris, The hypocracy goes deeper than just the USOC. We have Runner's World featuring a story on the cover to run farther with a banned drug. The best known coffee shop sells tea containing a banned substance.
