I understand you have a bit of a medical background... how much water would it take to kill a man (drinking it, not drowning in it)? And wouldn't the amount of water in the body need to be maintained for a period of time inorder for it to do the damage? Say, by drinking 5 gallons a day for weeks at a time?
It's a pretty instant thing........your cells basically freak out because you're thinnig/diluting out all the electrolytes which act like conductors in your body.
The 3 states of sodium saturation are Hypotonic, Hypertonic and isotonic and when I went to school I added a 4th............Gin & Tonic. Everybody was busting up.........even the instructor
Here's a decent link to water intoxication;

It is more common than believed....a lot of cases in the Grand Canyon every year after a long hike then slamming too much water.
I believe 1/8 teaspoon of salt to every quart of water will pretty much insure not suffering that fate.
My only point on the roids is that there are safe levels and they should only be used under supervision and AFTER testing to see where you're deficient.
In other words, if you are short a little testesterone because of heavy work outs you may supplement...........any extra is what causes the harmful side effects. You or I can't just inject 50cc's and hope we're in the ballpark.....that is just insane!!

Bonds was back last night and amazingly looked pretty good for missing the whole season and spring training.
Nobody has ever done what he did last night.....start a MLB game without playing the whole year and not having any games in the minors to get him into game shape.
Went 1 for 4, first hit was a HOMERUN!! Oh wait....a fan reached out a couple inches and grabbed the ball......GROUND RULE DOUBLE. Hit a couple other ***** to the wall for outs.

He looked really mobile in the field, but he looked to be favoring the knee when he crossed the plate on the way back to the dugout.
I doubt that the Giants have enough season left to get back into contention, though. One man isn't going to do that.

Dang! 2 games now without a homer... what a loser!!
J/K. Considering he hasn't had any games experience for a year, his timing is better than what I thought it would be, and I bet he hits one out in the next 2 games (that he actually plays in).

Good, but not 700 home runs good. Nowhere near it.
Too bad his testimony in the Balco case will never be released. If that was ever put up to media scrutiny along with the tax evasion problems then maybe he'd just fade away.
