The saddest day in the history of baseball
The saddest day in baseball was only last November when Senator George Mitchell announced the names of the 86 players on his steroids report. It was a shock to many all around the world. Mostly to the children because they saw that some of their heroes and role models were taking steroids and just cheating to be famous and rich. As many people may know steroids is a performance enhancing drug that many pro athletes may use, but it is illegal and many sport stars are still continuing to use it. Steroids have two kinds of forms, either a pill shaped or a liquid. There are also many other adverse side affects to steroids after using them, such as aggression, violence, rapid mood swings and psychotic episodes. Now even though steroids seem bad for cheating some kids need to use them from doctors order so they can heal faster or because of medical problems. But if you do have it you put yourself in danger of serious risks like liver damage and cancer. People have many theories to how the players got it. One way is that the trainers might have given them the steroids, they could have also purchased them off the black market. Many of the players are calling up their attorneys. Because all of the players named want to get into the hall of fame, and if the were accused of using steroids the people won't vote for them. And were is George Mitchell? He is working on another assignment for Bud Selig, the current commissioner, and going around testing more players to see if they took steroids. So remember that if you takes steroids just to cheat, your sports career will probably end.
