Steroids Are Over Rated Drugs


Ok I promise this will be the last post but a good post about the steroid issue in Major League Baseball. Do you honestly think these "things" called steroids really do that much? A lot of people would disagree with me but in my opinion Barry Bonds is the "Home run King." 

Here is my point:

Steroids take what you have and elevates it. Players like Barry Bonds, Alex Rodriguez, and Mark Mcguire were already good before they came into the league. Steroids are not going to turn mediocrity into "superstar." They are not going to take your mail man and make him into David Ortiz of the Boston Redsox . . . seriously. For example, I can have plastic surgery but its not going to make me look as good as Tom Brady, the surgery is just going to make a better "me." 

Now say if just "one" girl got a major teeth whitening in Los Angeles, then that would elevate her status and make her go from a 6 to a 8 or 9. But if everyone gets their teeth whitened, then it does not make much of a difference and that is what steroids do these days. Anabolic steroids just do not make much of a difference because such a large amount of players have been accused of using them in today's society. If everybody gets their teeth whitened then it might make a girl who is already a 6 into maybe a 7 or 7 1/2. You get where I am going? Pamela Anderson can have big fake "hoo-has," but if every girl gets them, then Pamela is not so hot anymore because tons of women already have fake "hoo-has." 

Steroids do not just take you right to the Hall Of Fame in Cooperstown, New York. Listen, I have read articles where the scout who recruited Alex Rodriguez to the Major Leagues was shaking because he marked down the score - 80. DO you want to know what he wrote down after he wrote down Rodrgiuez's score? Here it goes . . . "Hall Of Fame tool." Seriously, get some perspective people "A-Fraud," "A-Roid," or whatever you want to call him, was already a superb player before he even entered the Major League Baseball Draft where he became the number one pick overall. Alex Rodriguez and Ken Griffey were the highest rated high school baseball players to ever come out of high school. Give them lots of credit. It's not like they were not talented and did something miraculous. 

FInally, if you cannot agree to a good extent, then you just have a moral issue. Everyone did drugs in the 70's. Yet, when somebody got caught doing drugs, then you got the typical - - "I can't believe yooooouuu would do that." Still yet, everyone did drugs. My point is these players already had the "playa mentality" in them before they even got to the league.
