Is creatine ethyl ester legal in NCAA sports?

Yes it is. Creatine ethyl ester is just another more expensive form of creatine monohydrate, that is "absorbed" better than regular creatine. Creatine is legal to take, but coaches are not allowed to provide it for their athletes. I actually just got out of our NCAA meeting and we talked about this same thing.

Do energy drinks have bull sperm in?

No, energy drinks do not have bull sperm in them. There are some of the same chemicals, but you could say the same thing about just about anything!This is an urban legend. Taurine is a major constituent of bile and can be found in the large intestine and in the tissues of many animals, including humans, but it is not bull semen. It was originally obtained from Ox bile back in the 1920s, but today Taurine is obtained from isethionic acid (2-hydroxyethanesulfonic acid), which in turn is obtained from the reaction of ethylene oxide with aqueous sodium bisulfite or the reaction of aziridine with sulfurous acid which leads directly to taurine.
