The National Football League is not permitted to reveal details, when players violate anti-doping rules. It is only claimed that certain persons have been busted using forbidden medications. But the League must not report which substances have been applied by these sportspersons. Thus, several football players cheat about preparations that have led to positives.
Why do certain football players choose to cheat about substances that have been used by them? Let explain.
Many football players who fail drug tests affirm that they have used Adderall. In fact, they have taken anabolic steroids. Why do they say that they have tested positive for Adderall? What does Adderall represent? This is a medication that is recommended to treat attention-deficit disorder. But this product is applied not only for this therapeutic need. Athletes and bodybuilders use this preparation for performance-enhancing effects.
When it comes to steroids, they are harshly blamed. Many journalists, specialists, anti-doping officials and ordinary individuals claim that these products are too dangerous. They may lead to various severe side consequences. Steroids are demonized even for certain crimes. But when it comes to Adderall, this drug is not demonized in the society. Thus, many football players try to avoid criticism. They don’t want to be blamed for administration of such banned medications, as steroids. Since users of Adderall are not criticized harshly, football players say that they have failed drug tests because they have taken Adderall.
A football player compared this situation with following cases: those who are busted with cocaine tell others that they have applied marijuana because cocaine is more harshly demonized than the last one.
You should not suppose that each football player that says that he has tested positive for Adderall has really administered steroids. But it is possible to affirm that those that take Adderall are less blamed than those that administer anabolic steroids.
