The Major League Baseball experienced certain troublesome periods of time. It survived two situations that are considered to be 2 world wars for baseball: the 1919 Black Sox scandal and the betting of Pete Rose on baseball. Nowadays the MLB suffers from steroid era. It is widely believed that it will have capability to survive this period as well. There was a case that had a significant impact on baseball too. It was the case connected with Barry Bonds.
Undoubtedly, Barry Bonds was not the only player of the MLB who used performance-enhancing drugs. Furthermore, he is not the last of them. A lot of baseball players have administrated prohibited medications to increase performance. Many players of baseball have gotten praise and millions of dollars due to administration of banned drugs.
The sums of money that can be obtained justify the risks related to usage of steroids and other performance-enhancing drugs. The baseball players who apply prohibited products don’t worry so scrupulously about their reputation, as they trouble about getting money. Such persons are responsible for the influence that is spread upon fans that try to be similar to them and upon future generation that will have hot discussions about the steroid era in baseball.
Nobody doubts that any baseball player who takes steroids destroys his honor. It is made only for money. Such individual trades own reputation just for obtaining money.
Nonetheless, it is believed that future of baseball is without steroid use. Many baseball players possess talents and proper skills; they train intensively and dedicate themselves totally to this sport. They are honest individuals. They keep their image. Such individuals love baseball truthfully. They do not worry only about money. Such baseball players are motivated by true love to baseball.
In fact, the MLB is against steroids. But unfortunately, there are individuals in every sport who profit from usage of steroids.
Our hope is bright: we believe that the day comes, when we’ll see athletes that compete not because of usage of steroids and other related drugs but due to natural talents, skills and hard workouts.
