So basically you are saying PEDs are ok as long as everyone is able to do them?

Personally, I think blood testing may be intrusive but it isnt mandatory, these players can always take their HS degree and go get a job at McDonalds instead of making millions. This way their rights can stay protected as well as the rights of all the kids and young adults who want to be baseball players but dont want to take steroids are PEDs. If we make it ok for them to use as long as everyone is allowed then every kid who dreams of being a major leaguer had better start juicing now or the guy who's head will never stop growing (Re: Bonds) will take your spot.

I have never and will never be the guy who says 'If they are going to cheat anyway, may as well make it legal'.

Good god that's a lot of fallacies, and did you miss the part where I said I was personally in favor of banning steroids? Did you mean to respond to my post?

I would pose a question then. If a player were suspected or caught throwing games for money or betting against his team with bookies, what should the punishment be? Can the player say that what he does with his money or who he associates outside of work with is his own business? Is punishing a player for hanging out with known gamblers an infringement of his rights? (MLB rules).

Maybe Pete Rose should have just got 50 games?

I don't know, stop objectifying morality to satisfy your authority fetish, and maybe go re-read my post because if you really did mean to respond to me than I am extremely confused.

btw, MLB has banned HGH but they don't run blood tests for it due to objections from the players union (for other reasons)
