		<description><![CDATA[I wonder why they didn&#039;t simply call it a &quot;drug of abuse.&quot;

When players are caught using &quot;drugs of abuse,&quot; do they have to go through counselling or rehab or anything? The Joint Drug Prevent and Treatment Program seems like a waste if they don&#039;t also try to get these guys help. If they get help, does this extend to the MiLB players, too?]]></description>
