How often should athletes be drug tested and is targeting some athletes more than others a fair method of testing?

  3. I think it is unfair to be targeting players more than others. I think every player should be getting the drug tested the same amount of times throughout the season unless a specific problem. I think that if they do the random selection through the season, each player can only be randomly selected once a season. I think it is acceptable to have people retested multiple times if they fail a past one. If the computer program does not repeat the 10 players after a season, than that is fair, but when it is constantly being the same people than they should make it a better system.

  4. I think the system is fine as it is. I think it's random if there's no history of PED's. Once a person has PED's, they lose the league's trust and therefore should be tested more and it doesn't become as random. The NFL isn't asking much of the players and as long as they cooperate with the drug tests I don't see why there's an issue.
