When you have only one variable, as we do, you can type varname, which is short for varlist(min=1 max=1). Stata will then make sure that your program is called with exactly one name of an existing variable, which will be stored in a local macro called varlist.
Increase in NPV Over Lifetime Due To Steroids To determine the value of using steroids over a playerâ¢s lifetime, we first calculated the increased salary for the player. We used the average length of a Major League Baseball hitterâ¢s career, six years (Schall 2000).This leads to a total increase in salary of $12,512,630. Next we determined the cost of actually buying the steroids. Two different sources put the cost of injectable HGH (high end steroids) at $30,000 per year (Cook 2004). change in the nature and frequency of injuries also pointed to increased steroid use. The number of players on the Disabled List (DL) increased 31%, from 266 in 1989 to 349 in 1998, and the average stay on the DL increased 13% over the same period (Assael 2005).
McGwire acknowledged that there has been a problem with steroid use in baseball and said he is willing to help lawmakers combat the use of performance-enhancing drugs by younger players. But he did not directly address Canseco's allegation in his remarks. do not know how to say it any more clearly than that.. Sosa said in an opening statement read by his lawyer: Everything I have heard about steroids and human growth hormones is that they are very bad for you.. In 2001, Barry Bonds of the San Francisco Giants hit 73 home runs to break McGwire's record.
