    Amgen's, J&J's Anemia Drugs Get Stronger U.S. Warning (Update4)

    If the risk for death were so serious, surely we would have seen some
    pro cyclist die from it. We haven't.

    In Sweden, I think 4 or 5 died in their sleep from EPO. Their blood was
    as thick as ketchup, and the heart just couldn't pump it. Horrible deaths,
    in the early years of EPO.

    Not sure if you are fishing, but many have died...... starting with
    1989 amateur world chump.

    I also heard Rod Stewart swallowed a pint of sperm and had to go to the
    hospital to get it pumped out of his stomach.

    Yeah, you got the coroner's full report and toxicology results on that
    right? Or are you just repeating rumors you heard and claiming they are
    the same as an actual toxicology report? (Hint: no coronor tests for EPO).

    For all I know they could have died from a myriad of other substances.
    You want it to be EPO so you say it is EPO. That doesn't make it so.

    If you want to invent your own cause of death, then go right ahead. But
    don't come in here and try to sell me on the [censored] you know it's due
    to EPO when the fact is you don't.

    Thanks,

    There were a number of deaths like that among racing cyclists in the
    Netherlands.

    And O.J. is innocent.

    Although there is no evidence directly linking the recent spate of
    fatalities to banned drug use, a similar cluster of deaths - mainly in the
    Low Countries - in the late 1980s and early 1990s is now held to have marked
    the arrival in cycling of the banned blood booster erythropoietin (EPO).

    Additional dangers of EPO include sudden death during sleep, which has
    killed approximately 18 pro cyclists in the past fifteen years, and the
    development of antibodies directed against EPO. In this later circumstance
    the individual develops anemia as a result of the body's reaction against
    repeated EPO injections.

    Yes, and you struck the line, candyass.

    Yeah, and all those boats that "disappear" off the coast of Florida are
    due to the Bermuda Triangle. After all, what else could it be?

    How do you know they didn't die of amphetamines or cocaine or mismatched
    blood transfusions or Pot belge or insulin overdose or any number of
    other things? Why would you just pick EPO out of the blue like that?

    It's bizarre.

    A declaration without proof, names, or coroner's reports. It's all
    guessing, just like you and everyone else does.

    Just because you cite a link doesn't mean the content in it has been proven.

    I like all the references and official documentation to support this
    contention in the article (none). Do you think just because the link
    has "edu" in it I'm suppose to roll over and capitulate to its content?

    OJ had DNA evidence. What does your EPO contention have besides
    guessing? You don't kknow any of their blood values or whether they
    were anemic or not (tell me their blood's hemoglobin levels and how you
    know that figure to be true).

    All your evidence is self-fulfilling rhetoric.

    In any event, dying in your sleep isn't a 'horrible death', just
    premature. I always had burning to death at the top of my 'horrible
    death' list, but anything that doesn't even wake me up can't be all
    that bad.

  14. I heard MTV's Kennedy asked him that very question. Right towards the
