The topic of steroid use amongst pro-athletes was back on Capitol Hill Wednesday morning, and this time baseball wasn't the only sport being called to question. Commissioners and union leaders from pro baseball, football, basketball, and hockey were all invited to testify about possible drug-testing legislation.
NBA union leader Billy Hunter stressed the league has taken steps to keep their sport clean, "In our 2005 agreement the players agreed to more frequent testing harsher penalties. Even though the results did not mandate that changes be made, I'm pleased to announce since 2005 steroid use is not an issue in the NBA."
NFL Commissioner Roger Goodall said his league continues to set an example, "We believe that we have been leaders in this effort."
Representatives from World Wrestling Entertainment declined the house committee's invitation. Testifying Wednesday afternoon are representatives from the USOC, NCAA, Thoroughbred Racing Association, and the US Anti-Doping Agency. The USOC and USADA are based in Colorado Springs.
