End steroid controversy, let the other 10% do it

Want an easy way to gain over 60 lbs. of muscle and improve your game?  Just ask Mark McGwire, Sammy Sosa or Roger Clemens, they know the secret.  The game today and the athletes are different than ever before; the players are faster and stronger, and the hits are harder.  It’s no longer good enough to just be good at a sport.  A receiver with “good hands” isn’t enough.  That receiver needs to be able to not only out run defenders but be able to shed tackles.  Athletes strive to be at the very top of their game, to potentially be the best that ever played.  Now this isn’t such a bad thing.  All the extra time that these athletes would have to put in to improve their game and the determination they have makes watching them play all the more enjoyable.  But this strong drive and determination can sometimes cloud their vision and they can take it too far.  They are willing to do anything to get that edge over their opponents and for some this means taking steroids.  Why spend hours and hours in the gym and get mediocre results when you can use some steroids, go to the gym half the amount of time and see way better results.  Unfortunately it seems that more and more athletes are taking this approach.  So many athletes are either being accused of using steroids or have come forth about using them.  We are in a tainted era in sports and something needs to be done to stop this from continuing.
