Since all of this Roger Clemens steroids controversy it has caused many players not to get into the Hall-of-Fame just because of the suspicion of them using it. Dearthvader has a good point because records have been dropping like flies since all of this talk of steroids. It's basically like nothing to them because it is easier for them to break them because of the drugs they are using. But also I agree with Anthony Mason that Roger Clemens is one of if not the best pitchers that baseball has ever seen. I know that it seems fishy that he has been this good for so long but you never know what happens if you just work hard at what you do. Also his trainer could have just done this so he could make some money off Clemens. I agree with KOE had a good point also saying that they should have more serious penalties for either being dishonest of use or being caught using them so that it shows the upcoming star athletes how to perform the proper way so that it doesn't effect their future Hall-of-Fame possibility. In my next blog I will mostly talk about football and why they are not tested more often and why there isn't as much controversy as baseball.

I think its crazy to try to go back and change things now. Jose Conseco started all of this shit with his book. Steroids is there. It always will be. I'm just getting tired of everybody pointing fingers and just start testing more frequently. Instead of all of this he said she said try to start getting some hard proof. A lot of sports players out there use them, lets face it, its a quicker way to get over those injuries. But I think there should be more concrete evidence before labeling a guy a steroid user and taking away everything he has worked for.

I think that steriods need to be eliminated from sports. I love bodybuilding, but steriods ruin it because if someone useing steriods can put on 11 pounds of muscle on in one month. That is completely unfair to all of the guys that are not willing to risk their health to progress in their sports.

Steamboat--

Reread that first sentence--it sounds like you are going one way gramatcally, but then finish the sentence in a different way. And make sure it is clear what your pronouns are referring to. Also, shoot for multiple paragraphs and 250+ words.

Finally, as we'll talk about in clsss, if you'd like to continue the discussions in your comments, you should probably do so in your comments section for the original post (unliess you feel you can talk about one of the issues in detail).
