MLB 51 Posted November 26, 2012 Share Posted November 26, 2012 Where does everyone stand on this? I personally, would rather see athlete's succede on natural talent. Discuss. Quote Link to comment
BIGREDIOWAN Posted November 26, 2012 Share Posted November 26, 2012 I don't think there is any place for them in sports................period! They're dangerous as hell and if you need them, you obviously aren't that good. Quote Link to comment
Landlord Posted November 26, 2012 Share Posted November 26, 2012 This is actually a debate? Quote Link to comment
MLB 51 Posted November 26, 2012 Author Share Posted November 26, 2012 This is actually a debate? More of question. Someone had said they were Pro steroid in the recruiting forum. Just wanted to know where others stood on the issue. Quote Link to comment
Hedley Lamarr Posted November 26, 2012 Share Posted November 26, 2012 Watch the documentary bigger stronger faster. If they are so dangerous and deadly why are they used in medicine and regarded as a miracle drug? Why did the government ban the use of them when the people they consulted said do not ban them? Did you know having low testosterone is worse than high testosterone? Did you know that the theory of they make you angry etc is made up? In terms of mood and temper they amplify the type of person you are. So yes if you have a temper and get angry easy it will make it worse. If you are not an adult male of good health physically and mentally then you shouldn't use them period. Quote Link to comment

This entirely glosses over the issue at hand when talking about steroids in regards to sports - which is that they are cheating. Quote Link to comment

Legalize it....bigger stronger faster athletes equals much more exciting sports....we already watch athletes using PEDs on a daily basis Quote Link to comment

Athletes are bigger, faster and stronger, and frankly the human body is just not designed to put up with the collisions that are taking place. Steroids would make this issue much worse. We're already seeing the demise of the sport of contact football right before our eyes because of bigger, stronger, faster, yet, you want to accelerate it. Quote Link to comment

Too much money involved. Many people will gladly play for millions with the chance of concussion. Would you play pro football for a mil a year if it resulted in possible concussion? I would Quote Link to comment

The quick searching I did seems to support the idea that steroids are indeed very harmful to your health. Even if they were okay in moderation it would be unrealistic to expect athletes to follow guidelines with steroid use. Also, the mere fact that they are used in medicine is meaningless. Almost all prescription drugs have side effects and many have long-term effects depending on usage. If they weren't necessary to treat illnesses they would not be prescribed. As Accountability mentioned bigger, strong, faster athletes lead to more injuries including concussions. The slight improvement to the quality of play is not worth the brain damage it causes.
