"Must the NFL-fat, sassy, the General Motors of professional sports-meet a similar crisis [to the one the National Basketball Association went through in the eighties] before it tries to solve its own plague of drugs?
For years, since Don Reese's personal revelation and charges of league-wide drug involvement, the NFL has lived under a cloud of suspicion. Initially, it seemed the front offices, deeply concerned that their image remain pristine, chose to look the other way. Now they've acknowledged the problem, and have chosen to push for testing; this year, eight franchises asked their players to undergo post-season analysis, but each was refused."
-Tom Jackson, Sacramento Bee
