Snagged by a sprawling federal steroids sting, two Bay Area brothers are
facing federal allegations that they stole human growth hormone from biotech
giant Genentech Inc. and sold it through a sports nutrition store in San
Jose.

Their arrests represented just a fraction of Operation Raw Deal, the largest
steroid crackdown in U.S. history, a coordinated effort to disrupt worldwide
steroid manufacturing and distribution.

The Drug Enforcement Agency, which announced the operation Monday, was
assisted by nine other countries, including China. Agents raided 56 labs
across the country that manufactured anabolic steroids and human growth
hormone and seized 11.4 million doses of drugs, according to the DEA.

Amazing that our govt even cares about the steroid "problem". Only one
drug problem we should care about and that is drunk driving since DUIs
are killers and maimers. But that is ignored!!! Hell - we even have a
prez and vp with DUI convictions and nobody cares.

Let the dumb jocks use any drug they want while playing their silly games.

Barry Bonds was accuced of swallowing many steroids all these years which
made him beat world home run record of Hank Aron
