larry: why are we fascinated? >> how with can we help it? it is the kingm back. i think there's a sociological issue. prescription drug abuse is the cocaine of this millennium. remember, cocaine was all of that in the '80s. now we have prescription drug abuse. every adult with health care coverage and can afford the insurance can get a prescription drug high if they want. it's an issue that's prevalent, so it's a big deal by itself. >> larry: pushed steroids off the front page. >> sure did. >> larry: athletes are thanking us. earlier, we showed you a clip o
