Baseball and Steroids:

So Finally Mark McGuire came out and told the truth that he had used steroids to boost his career. It is really a shame that it had to have that way. I can understand that there is pressure on the baseball players to perform but instead of playing on their own strength, they had to use Steroids. What next or I should say who will be next in line to admit it.

All these records of home runs have started to look very suspicious to me and millions of baseball fans.

Since the Steroids crisis hit the baseball, every time something extraordinary happens, people say that it is not their talent but it is Steroids. I would also like to say that the baseball as a sport has been slow to admit that it had a problem. Only after much pressure that punishments and penalties were imposed but it is still very inadequate. I would really like to see harsh punishments like a year worth of suspensions for the first offense and two years for the second offense and life time ban on three or more suspensions. Plus I would like to say that when the players are caught with these Steroids, all the previous records during which they used the steroids should be wiped out and they should be forced to start again. Other than this it will be the baseball fans pressure that will make these players behave and nothing else.
