Mark Kriegel needs to get a clue

So many bloggers often seem to be more informed and often much smarter than some of the "experts" that grace our newspapers, websites and magazines. While i am not 100 % clear on all of the details of steroids and wrestling, it seems like Mark Kriegel is misinformed regarding wrestling and the need for Congress to get involved. From what i understood from Kriegel's article, it seems like he wants Congress to get involved and investigate steroid use in professional wrestling like it has in the MLB. From what i have heard from many sources and certain local radio personalities, it appears that Congress, nor any other government department, has the ability to stop steroid use in wrestling. I am not sure how it works, but when the WWE became an organization, they classified themselves as entertainment, not a sport. Because they are not a sport, (i am not sure why that makes a difference, but if anybody has any information regarding the process please inform me) steroid use by its employees is not a crime like it is in the major competitive sports, i.e baseball,basketball, football etc. Again, i am not 100% sure that what i am writing is accurate, but i have heard it from reliable sources and have also heard it spoken about over the radio, but i have had trouble finding information regarding this topic over the internet. If anyone has information, please leave comments about it.
