Steroids are terrible for the body in so many ways. They ruin your long term physical health, they make you be considered a cheater, they alter your mental health and make you extremely short tempered, and much more that doesn't need mentioning. Since steroids are illegal and banned in basically every sport, no athletes should be using them. But new ideas and new supplements are constantly being designed and discovered and athletes are finding ways around steroids all of the time. The tests keep having to improve to keep up with the times and more and more enhancements get banned each and every year. So the question is, when are they going to give up and just make steroids legal? Since there seems to be no way to really keep athletes from using them.
Steroids should never be legal. If the government and league officials were to allow athletes, or anyone for that matter, to treat their bodies in such a horrible way just to have an advantage in competition, it would be making a huge mistake. The harms that can come from taking steroids heavily out way any glory steroids can bring. There is no way that the higher ups can bring themselves to support this wrong doing. They would basically be sending the message: it is more important to win than to take care of your body. That is not okay.
However, on the other hand, what if keeping up with the time does get too hectic? What if there is no way to really keep players from using the new and improved, undetectable performance enhancer of that time? The answer to that is, just keep doing the best to enforce steroid prevention. And if there is ever any giving up, do it by simply not changing the tests and failing to keep up with the times. But do not legalize performance enhancers. No one wants to see a juiced up and LEGAL America.
