RE: FOR HARDCORE SPORTS FANS

We've had some prominent athletes die in the last several years....because of steroid use....


The elite athletes....will always have the best drugs available to them.


Just as in society........the richest will always have the best....


So it's never going to be a level playing field (NPI = no pun intended)


I don't know where I stand on this.......I'm still giving it some thought.

Well, we are always pushing ourselves a bit further so drugs are now part of the show. I wonder if those same athletes will be as performant as the one before us that haven't or barely experienced the drugs within their carrier ?


I don't approve but I don't think there is another alternative nowadays.


So does the end justifiy the means, well for them, that's for sure, even if some openly regret it after and try to warn the public opinion about it.


At one point, for us too because we are always waiting for something better, faster, higher, etc... so as spectators, we are part of this "engrenage"

With all the talk about drug use and steroids.......
Do you really care if today's athletes use steroids in order to give you a better "show" (homeruns, goal, be faster, etc...)
Or do you still have respect for the old athletes who set records legitametly....and don't want to see some "science experiment" athlete...break those records??
 




If they were to ALL take it, sure. But not if only a handful are doing it. It's like comparing apples to oranges at that point.
