Michael Vick’s dogfighting case notwithstanding, the Mitchell Report on steroid use in baseball is the runaway Story of the Year in sports. But baseball is hardly the only sport with a steroid issue. Here’s a short and by no means comprehensive list of who did what in 2007:
Cycling: The 2007 Tour de France was rocked by doping scandals, including testosterone.
MMA: Sean Sherk and Hermes Franca both tested positive for steroids after their lightweight title fight at UFC 73.
Track and Field: Marion Jones admitted in October to using “the clear” starting in 1999.
NFL: Patriots safety Rodney Harrison was suspended four games, apparently for HGH.
Golf: “I would say there’s 10 guys taking something,” Gary Player alleged at the British Open. The LPGA followed up with a drug policy for 2008.
Swimming: Ian Thorpe investigated for abnormal levels of testosterone. His name was cleared and the case dropped.
