Steroids..I DONT CARE!!

Steroids....this controversial subject has brung many ESPN and other recognize analyst to the brink of explosion,because everyone thinks it is so bad and so wrong to every sport it is showcased in.The fact of the matter is,its not the sport that is being hurt,it is the athlete that injecting or orally taking them.So let me get to my point on why i dont care if take them,the simple reason is this:"IF YOU DONT HAVE TALENT TO BACK UP THE STREOIDS THERE IS NO REASON TO WASTE YOUR BREATH.I have seen for the last 10 years seen different people express such frustration,thinking steroids has giving basball a bad name,just because you think he took or why is he so big from 10-15 years previous is such a big deal,we all know the body at a twilight age is not the same one on draft night,so you will have to work harder,thats just common sense.In case in point Mr. Barry Lamar Bonds,the all time homerun champ(yes the all time champ)i love Hank Aaron,i love this brother story his background and as a fellow black man,im proud that he has this prestigious award of being that man until bonds broke the record.Barry has done this on sheer talent alone,yes talent alone.Lets just say he did take them his whole entire career and ended up with 250 homeruns,no one will be bitching or saying a word.Does anybody remember the great but unheard of even remembered Raphel Belliard,the latin ball player who played for the Braves in the late and early 90's,lets just say he was on steroids,but if you know your baseball history,his career homerun totals is about maybe and i mean maybe 5-10 homeruns.So i say that to say this,if you dont have the talent,then you taking the steroids means nothing,you got to have the talent to back up these steroids.

The alleged blackeye that baseball has is a freaking lie,it never will have it.For generations we have watched and marveled at the talents that come to our respective fields,and for many more years to come it will do the same.People of all ages will come early to see batting practice,get pictures,bats,baseballs and other fine collectibles signed by these athletes that has been sworn under oath or railroaded on certain sport t.v. and radio programs across the country.You can say all day or speak 'til you face turns purple that this person cheated.From A-Rod to Bonds,or even you suspected franchise pitcher all have the spotlight on them because of this drug.Anybody that is anybody should know baseball is a very difficult sport to play,it may look easy,it may look boring to a person that is on the outside looking in,but i have played,and believe me it is not easy.It is a God given talent that has to be bestowed upon you,Steroids does not guarantee to make you hit homeruns,grab extra bases,throw a better fastball or curveball,it can guarantee extra strength thats if you work out,no person that i know ever has taken the drug,went to sleep looking like J.J. Walker and woke up looking like Dwight Howard,u still have to put in the work.

Mark McGwire has come forth as the new combatent to confess to using the drugs.He has been elgible for the Hall of Fame for the last 4 years and has recieved to my knowledge as high as 22% of the vote,needing 75% of the vote from writers to be elgible to be enshrined in baseballs most elite class of company.We all know Mark is know as a good guy and a guy who dodge questioning or answering anything about his alledged use of steroids,So since he has come forth,dont be surprised if his percentage suddenly sky rocket from 22% to 60% or in a couple of years he will make the Hall of Fame.Now lets put the shoe on the other foot,if Bonds does this and will be eligible in a couple of years he will get crushed and this my opinion,he will not get the same amount of love because he has been a thorn in the medias side because of the way he treats you the media.He has way better numbers,but like i have said,earlier in this piece,you MUST have the talent to be able to hit such a large amout of homeruns whether its Mark's(588) or Bonds (765) without this talent you will do these steroids no good,thats if you take them for that reason,to have better numbers.

I can understand the amount of pressure one has to perform on such a high level of play,but to the ones that still think steroids is cheating,then you are sadly mistaken.Just think about it for a second and you will have no choice but to agree.You can be a big as DC comics heros,but it doesnt mean anything if you dont put in the work or have the talent to hit,run or play better,overall...So to all the people out there that has been wasting their breath for the last 10 to 15 years thinking it has given the game of baseball a black eye or has ruin the game as we know it.Your only as good as the talent God has given you.
