(PRWEB) July 21, 2004 -- Drugs...Doping...Cheating --Insider Talks about the Worst Scandals in Sports
Youve seen the headlines, most recently in USA Today: Runner to help in drug probe" and U.S. Olympian hopefuls face drug accusations," and a myriad of other scandals. Dr. James D. Chlovechok, a sports insider, doctor, Medical Director of the Ohio Sports Medicine Institute, pro-boxer and author, has a lot to say about it. He's well informed about the widespread drug use and dangers, the conduct unbecoming some of our high-profile athletes, the way rules are bent and broken.
Fact: 85% of today's athletes admit they would take a potentially fatal drug, if it could guarantee a major championship.
Fact: Most fans are quick to overlook a sports star's indiscretions, from substance abuse to drunk driving to criminal trials to illegal betting and worse
Forty-six, fit, and a father of five, Chlovechok is still going glove to glove with young opponents in the ring. Not only is he staying in the ring with people half his age, but, as a physician, he can comment on how and why this is possible—-without steroids or drugs (current status: 6 and 2 with 5 KOs). Admittedly, he is by no means the first athlete to be in top form at a past-your-prime age. Some of our best-loved and older athletes-—e.g. Roger Clemens, George Foreman, Darrell Green of the Washington Redskins, Martina Navratilova—-have shown remarkable staying power.
Chlovechok is also the author of "Game Face," an intense, fast-paced novel that blends mystery and sports, medicine and murder—-a book that takes you behind the scenes where athletes will do anything to win—-even if it kills them.
John Eradi, award-winning sports writer for the Cincinnati Enquirer, calls Game Face right on point;" Dean Chance, Major League Baseball Cy Young Award-winning pitcher and current IBA President has this to say: Incredible. Chlovechok knows athletes;" Fritz Hagerman, Exercise Physiologist for the U.S. Olympic Rowing Team and Major League Baseball, NASCAR and NASA consultant calls Game Face Accurate and disturbing;"and John Walsh of Book Ideas, says: an entertaining and educational thriller about an area of society that is of considerable importance but that is, nevertheless, underexamined!"
Concerned about the dangers of the new wave of highly advertised pills, both prescription and over the counter, and the things the pharmaceutical companies dont want you to know, Chlovechok has penned a second (nonfiction) book "Infinite Risk," about the dangers of NSAIDs.
Currently, Chlovechok is being featured on Sportsfan Radio network, WTRF-TV, WEKZ-FM, WFIN-AM, WSCR-AM, WYSR-AM, WNJC-AM, and seen in Foreword Magazine, PW, Fitness Magazine, Bowkers and more.
