However, you're overlooking a very large factor. Steroids have been shown to have adverse health effects. Why is it fair for sports organizations to essentially force participants to take drugs in order to keep up with or attempt to exceed the efforts of those individuals who don't mind ingesting harmful substances? In my mind it's a much different risk athletes take than those they willingly accept (i.e. injuries) when competing, especially in contact sports. It's not fair to the athletes who don't want to ingest harmful substances - they'll lose their jobs to those folks willing to dope up in order to succeed or even just compete.

buildingmaint Posted February 20, 2006 Author Share Posted February 20, 2006 . A lot of the linemen in the NFL in the 70's took steroids. Did all football players take steroids in the 70's ? Or did some compete without steroids . I think world class athletes not on steroids can compete and win aginst other athletes on steroids. If your good ,your good.
