NFL, union talking about HGH tests

The NFL and players union are talking again about starting to test for human growth hormone as early as the upcoming season.
?? ?
The labor agreement that ended the NFL lockout in 2011 allowed the league to test players for HGH - once the union approved the process. The NFL Players Association says it favors testing, but has reservations about the appeals process.
?? ?
Supplemental HGH is a banned substance that is hard to detect and used by athletes for what are believed to be a variety of benefits, whether real or only perceived - such as increasing speed and improving vision.
?? ?
Among the health problems connected to HGH are diabetes, cardiac dysfunction and arthritis.
?? ?
NFL spokesman Greg Aiello says the discussions are focused "on a full resolution of any remaining issues."
