A fans perspective on steroids
I am a fan of all sports especially Football and Baseball which are the two most talked about sports for steroids and HGH. Steroids in sports are illegal and i know that and these players know that as well. The best time to watch baseball was when Slammin Sammy and Mark Mcgwire were hitting homer for homer in 1998 both eclipsing Roger Maris's unheralded record of 61 homers in a single season. For me that was fun seeing all those home runs hit. I know that they test players for steroids know and there still isn't a test for HGH. The "steroid era" lasted until 2007 when Barry Bonds was indicted on charges. I know that some of the records that were broken in the ten years the"steroid era" are tainted and need to go in a different chapter in the history books. MLB didn't test for steroids heavily until 2006 and they still don't have a test for HGH but it is still Banned. Why should players get in trouble for using a banned substance when thy don't even have a test for it yet. that's like saying you cant drink and drive but if you do and get caught were not gonna give you a breathalyzer. From 2006 on I think that anyone who does fail a test needs dire consequences. anyone before than needs to fess up if you were on the Mitchell report and be forgiven. Sports fans are the most forgiving people. Tell us and get it over with, look at what is happening to Roger Clemens and Barry Bonds. The steroid era was fun to watch but the post steroid era is going to be more competitive and more on a level playing field. I am very excited about what the future holds in this post steroid era.
