Who cares? Every great athlete I have ever seen, and every not so great athlete I have ever seen for that matter, uses at least one of these drugs. I wish everyone would just admit it, and then we can make it legal again and the sports I enjoy watching can not have this garbage going on.

I am fine with doping, who really cares? The product was better since 1997 than it ever was. And they needed it because of the striker and stuff. To me, they did nothing wrong. If everyone, all at once, just said, "We all did it" then there would be no issue. There should be no issue right now.

I believe Jordan used steroids. And you know what, I do not care because I believe every basketball player I watched was on steroids. It is not so bad. Let it be in sports so I can watch the best possible product.

I can't tell if you're being serious or not. Regardless, you need to understand two things;

First, if you make an accusation like "Jordan used steroids", you need to site your source, else we're gonna have lots of little kids running around saying that Jordan used steroids, which is a very serious (though baseless) accusation.

Second, steroid use is wrong on two levels. Which are A) It gives them a competitive advantage against those they play against today, and B) It gives them a competitive advantage when they go up against some of the most sacred records in professional sports. It seriously takes away from the accomplishments of the sports. There's a reason why it's shameful and wrong, you know.

And no, not everybody uses them. If everyone actually did, we wouldn't have AS MUCH of a problem. However, steroids have down sides. They act as a short circuit to your body. Even though you get a boost now, you're gonna pay for it when your balls are the size of marbles and your muscles have torn so many times that a roll of duct tape couldn't save you.

So how can you be ok with this? Ok with role models teaching kids that sacrificing your healthy future for a couple extra strikeouts now is ok? How can you be ok with today's athletes spitting on the game and breaking records that should still be standing (a la Hank Aaron)?
