The Major League Baseball endured certain problematic periods of time. It endured two situations which are claimed to be two world wars for baseball: the 1919 Black Sox scandal and the betting of Pete Rose on baseball. Today the MLB experiences steroid era. It is widely believed that it will be able to endure this period too. There was a case that had an essential impact on baseball as well. It was the case linked with Barry Bonds.
Undoubtedly, Barry Bonds was not the only baseball player that applied performance-enhancing drugs. Furthermore, he is not the last of them. Many baseball players have used banned drugs to enhance performance. Numerous players of baseball have gotten awards and millions of dollars due to intake of prohibited drugs.
The sums of money that can be obtained justify the risks linked with intake of steroids and other performance-enhancing drugs. The baseball players who use forbidden preparations don’t worry so scrupulously about their reputation, as they trouble about obtaining of money. Such individuals are responsible for the influence which is spread upon fans who try to be similar to them and upon future generation that will have hot discussions about baseball and the steroid era.
No one doubts that any baseball player that takes steroids destroys his honor. It is made just because of money. Such individual trades own reputation just for getting money.
Nonetheless, it is believed that future of baseball is light. A lot of baseball players have talents and appropriate skills; they train intensively and dedicate themselves wholly to this sport. They are honest individuals. They keep their honor. Such persons love baseball truthfully. They do not care only about money. Such baseball players are motivated by true love to baseball.
Generally, the MLB ignores steroids. But unluckily, there are individuals in every sport that profit from usage of steroids.
Our hope is light: we think that the day comes, when we’ll see athletes who compete not because of administration of steroids and other related preparations but due to natural talents, skills and hard workouts.
