Maryland Bans Steroids

I didn't see a thread on this, but thought it worth mentioning. I would gather New York can't be far behind?

Pretty much all the states will be on board by Jan 1st though administrative processes need to be worked around in some states. MD is adopting the model rules which most other states are except the geniuses in LA and KY who needed to show how tough they are and in the process do exactly what everyone complains about, that is not getting everyone on the same page. I suppose it would have been to much for them to finally get a uniform rule in place and see how it goes before grandstanding.

I would suspect it would be particularly easy to accomplish their steroid ban if that were the case.

Yeah, that was pretty stupid, and should be changed. I don't know, though, if either state will suffer lack of entries.
