Exactly what does the steroid use do? I know it pumps you up...in my case the type that I take makes me gain weight, or plumps me up....but it dam well does not make me feel like a million dollars. Does it make it easier when one of these guys rips a tendon in his arm from throwing 94 mph plus?
Maybe I am in the minority but I consider the publication of all these names outright slander. The creep Mitchell, and he does look like a vulture, said smilingly...Proof? proof...oh, I have the word of the trainer - who injected etc. etc...that's proof enough. Oh, really....I think not. When one reporter asked how did some of the guys come through all the testing showing they had not used the drug....he gave some vague reference to the dates in question as to when the person was tested. Doesn't that stuff stay in your system a long time?
I am sick and tired of seeing the media, the government or the powers that be..go after people who have, through their own efforts and hard times too, achieved a level of success...earning fame...through which we can turn their feet to clay...
I may get some people mad, but eventhat guy Vick, it's awful what he did but do you realize that he was given more time in jail than some rapists get? These judges are not longer judges - they are scared of the media, wanting only good feedback on well profiled cases so they over react in their sentencing. Maybe they all want to be Judge Judy. Don't ask my opinion on the judicial system in this country.
Oh, and Mitchell said he's done all this to make sure that the youth of our country knows how wrong it is to cheat. Well, sir, your point will not help put more kids into a game that has been a national pastime for years...in fact, you are killing it.

About Vick though... he lied to them... that is why he is getting so much time... not because of the actual abuse and fighting of the dogs....
I hate the use of steriods in baseball... I hate that it was allowed for so long, but I do not like what they did with this stupid report.
be well,

My opinion is just my own about the steroid use and it's different than yours but I hope we'll still be friends and I don't get blocked or something. And as for Vick you have a valid point about the judges. Any one who would hurt an animal though would hurt a human too and it's proven statiscally somewhere. And slander isn't slander unless it's a lie. Stating truths and naming names isn't morally right sometimes but it isn't the legal definition of slander either. Drugs in the game are cheating and consequences are a deterent for others who consider it. And this is your journal don't let anybody beat you up or tell you that you can't write whatever you want to in your journal. I don't think anyone should fuss at you for stating your opinion in your own journal. I'm not a sports fan by the way. lol
Wishing you a Very Merry Christmas,

Oh I don't get up different opions are what makes the world go around, imagine if we all agreed how boring would that be? Sandi
it's odd how celebrities are made an example of in one way or another. one might get 24 hours when they should get at least 6 months, and another gets a sentence that just doesn't seem appropriate. i guess it depends on which end of the celebrity scale they are and what kind of example a judge wants to set. makes me think of the quote i had on my computer screen saver at work before the superintendent saw it and was aghast enough to request i remove it..
if you can't be a good example, then you'll just have to be a horrible warning.
