Yeah, we probably don't want athletes to be role models anymore either.

You can't have every athlete taking them & then ban them from under 18 year olds. They're going to try to take them because they see athletes taking them. What happens if a kid is 18 in high school? Is he not supposed to be tested while the other kids are?

Then we have the college teams who will buy steroids for their players because they can afford while other teams can't afford it. Talk about making the playing level even more unfair.

Let's encourage our kids, college, and high school athletes to take steroids for most of their life so they can completely destroy their bodies down the road.

I don't get it, 17 year olds can't buy alcohol right? Are you talking about some sort of SUPER laws that we actually can enforce, as opposed to just the regular laws? How do you propose stopping 17 year olds from taking steroids, since things like laws and testing apparently won't work?

And no, GOD no, athletes should not be role models. That is a horrible, horrible idea. But if you insist on it, then surely the one guy who makes an NFL team without steroids will be the greatest role model of all time, right? Talk about your Rudy! Whoo, how can we pass up a potential opportunity like that? LOL.

"What about the children!?!?" is one of the lamest arguments ever. The NFL isn't responsible, the MPAA isn't responsible, the RAA isn't responsible. I want to see my freak-hulks destroying the Green Bay Freak-hulks, so too bad for your kids.
