Blog post #1

1.   There is a huge problem with athletes using steroids for the game. Allot of people are not only concerned about the game but of the athletes using these dangerous drugs shortening their lives dramatically to get a better placing. Some care more about the game some care more about the players. steroids offer a true threat to sports but an even greater threat to the players.

2.   Players using steroids and other performance drugs are a true threat to the way we see and play sports. These players are hurting the game, but more importantly they are hurting themselves, and people hurting themselves is more important than people hurting a game.

3.   "And it all goes back to purity. Sport, after all. isn't just entertainment." I agree with this as if athletes were aloud to use any drugs they want and as much as they want no one would know if they were actually a pure good player or just made super by steroids. If none of the players are on steroids the competition is very much still there and they players can compete without having to worry about who's juiced or not. They can just see someone is better then them and not have to worry about them being on drugs.
