WASHINGTON (AP) - The NFL met Friday's deadline for turning over documents about its drug-testing results and policy to the congressional panel that held last month's hearing on steroids in baseball.
"They were just delivered. We'll start going through them," said Karen Lightfoot, spokeswoman for the House Government Reform Committee's ranking Democrat, Henry Waxman of California.
Waxman and committee chairman Tom Davis, a Virginia Republican, sent a letter to NFL commissioner Paul Tagliabue on March 31 asking for information about the league's drug program. The letter asked for the number of drug tests each year, the number of positive results and which substances are tested for; it didn't require that the league reveal names of players.
