They have to put themselves through so much. Addiction is a huge issue.

My kids go to school with several prominent PGA players’ kids. I don’t run in those circles as we’re probably the poorest family in their respective grades . I’ve heard some stories from other dads in the classes about the ridiculous amount of Coke that is present at some of their parties.

All of the NBA and MLB players are smoking so much weed. NBA and MLB do not test for Marijuana. NFL players probably popping prescription opioids all day long.

Baseball had the greenie era. Little green amphetamine pills. A player who DIDN'T take them was the rare exception. I think even Willy Mays admitted it.

Snowboarders, professional and amateur, smoke the most weed by far. They make the NBA look like amateur hour.

Just imagine if the sport with the highest drug use was axe throwing. Nobody would attend...

Pretty popular among HS kids back in the day too. Some coaches handed them out like candy.

All the soccer dudes at my high school were big stoners. Not sure if it's still like that.

Horse Racing, if it is anything like it was a few decades ago. Jockeys were speed freaks, generally speaking, way back.

Historically baseball. You've had guys pitching high on coke, marijuana and LSD plus players using uppers, steroids etc.
