So what do you think.... The whole steroid scandal in baseball has completly blown up. Practically every good player in the past 15 years is now being accused of using performance enhancing drugs. Is the media and the government blowing this out of porpotion or is this really serious?

Yeah i can not stand the fact that steroids are running rampid in professional sports. I personally believe that performance enhancing drugs are in every pro sport more than people would like to agree. Baseball is just the first to get major publicity for it.
ReplyDeleteIt amazes me that how many professional athletes end up being accused of using steroids. It really does kill their image and people will not look up to them as they once did. If athletes start stop using and actually put in the effort to trying to look like that naturally, then they will get a better reputation.
ReplyDeletei beleive tha it is bad for the public to pressure the athletes that much that they would even want to take steriods. I think if there was less pressure to be the best, the athletes would not have a need to take steroids or enhancing drugs in the first place
