Not quite true. We all know other drugs cause it too. Michael Phelps will never win another swimming event because his lungs will collapse.

Rush Limbaugh won't be able to keep his radio show and will end up in prison since abusing pain killers results in poverty, theft, and sometimes murder.

A-Rod is doomed. Probably never hit double digits home runs again. Probably be lucky to walk again.

I don't know if you're being sarcastic or not, but the fact is that throughout baseball history, the vast majority of players are washed up well before age 33.
