I am all for substances used in pro sports. i mean, these guys are role models for so many then why not have some guy juiced out of his mind and crank out 600+ ft. home runs!? that would be Awesome. then when the guy's heart explodes right there at home plate on national TV then ppl can say "yep son, you do drugs and hit 600+ ft home runs and get all kinds of money, but a lot of good it does you when your heart explodes and your junk shrivels". I think THEN kids would actually get it. that's just me in my sick little world. Seriously, you haven't seen Cujo?
