Jose Canseco

In the last few years there have been a number of athletes, especially in the game of baseball, who have been accused of using steroids to enhance their performance. Sometimes it is not easy to prove that an athlete has used steroids, but there have been quite a few professional baseball players who have admitted to using these substances. A few names that come to mind include Jose Canseco, Mark McGwire, and Jason Giambi. Some, like Rafael Palmeiro, have publicly denied any use of steroids (in front of Congress, no less) only to have incriminating evidence revealed later on. Is it fair to criticize these athletes, or are they simply struggling to meet the rigorous demands of their profession?
It may be tempting to overlook these mistakes when you have looked up to these players for years. However, because these athletes have corrupted the integrity of the game and, more importantly, are influencing young athletes to put their health at risk, we shouldn't be so sympathetic when they are punished. It is one thing to put their own health at risk, but these professionals are breaking the law and negatively influencing thousands of young men (and an increasing number of young women - see the Department of Justice Fast Facts on steroids). Moreover, they lessen the value of a game that has meant so much to so many Americans over the years. I think it is only fair that we hold them responsible legally and morally when they violate the law, cheat while playing America's favorite pastime, and set a bad example for the next generation of athletes.

GOLF - The Best Sport
Ever wonder why golf is growing in popularity and people who don't even
play go to tournaments or watch it on TV? These truisms may shed light on
reasons why:
- The players being honorable people who don't need referees.
- Golfers call penalties on themselves.
- Golfers don't scratch their privates on the golf course.
- Golfers don't kick dirt on, or throw bottles at, other people.
- Professional golfers are compensated in direct proportion to how well they play.
- Golfers don't get per diem and two seats on a charter flight when they
travel between tournaments.
- Golfers don't hold out for more money, or demand new contracts,
because of another player's deal.
- When golfers make a mistake, nobody is there to cover for them or back them up.
- The PGA Tour raises more money for charity in one year than the
National Football League does in two.
- Golf tournaments are not run on pay-per-view TV channels.
- You can watch the best golfers in the world up close, at any tournament, including the majors, all day, every day for $25 or $30. The cost for a seat in the nosebleed section at the Super Bowl will cost around $300 or more.
- In golf you cannot fail 70% of the time and make $9 million a season.
- Golf doesn't change its rules to attract Fans.
- Golfers keep their clothes on while they are interviewed.
- Golf doesn't have free agency.
- In their prime, Greg Norman, Arnold Palmer and other stars, would
shake your hand and say they were happy to meet you. In his prime, Jose Canseco wore T-shirts that read "Leave Me Alone."
- You can hear birds chirping on the golf course during a tournament and ladies are welcomed as players.
- You will not hear a steady stream of four letter words and nasty name.
