I have absolutely no problem with baseball players using PEDs. Never have. Makes the games more entertaining and the players play at a higher level.

Its also dangerous, especially in the levels used. So you're essentially telling players they have to put their lives on the line to keep up. Baseball is a sport that deals heavily in records. PEDs make the record books meaningless, in essense making baseball meaningless. To me pitching duels can be exciting. I don't like too much offense. The new rules in football make me remember a time when defense was exciting.

Steroids are no more dangerous for you than any number of legal drugs in this country that are currently available for anybody to use.

Except those are prescribed by doctors with controlled use. Steroids are provided by essentially drug dealers.

Yea and since steroids are illegal, buying them off drug dealers is definitely risky. Numerous reports on the internet of guys buying 'roids that actually turn out to be cat piss and other such things.
