To start, there are many arguments againts the use of steriods in sports. One of the biggest concerns is potential health risk associated with the steriods used. These risk consist of liver damage, cardiocascualr issues, and hormonal imbalances. All these health concerns could lead to major issues down the road.
Secondly, if athletes use steriods. Then their would be an unfair advantage compared to those who choose not to use steriods. Also, not all athletes have accsess to the same doctors/resources which have the knowledge needed when taking steriods. This could lead to an uneven playing field between athletes where those using steriods have a big advantage. The overall point of sports is for them to be fair and have equal oppurntunity, allowing steriods would take that away.
Lastly, you have to think about what message the use of steriods sends to younger athletes. Allowing steriods could become dangerous, this could make young athletes think the use of steriods are acceptable while chasing succsess. Overall, that would have a negative impacts on all sports and even more importantly, a negative impact on future geneartions of athletes.
Do you think steriods should be allowed?
Do you think steriods are to much of a health concern to take?
Do you think steriods will hurt the overall integrity of sports?

I think that if players use steriods it should be very regulated. If players do use steriods it could provide a competive advantage and that would not be fair. I think that steroids are a big health concern. I fell like steriods will hur the integrity of sports.
I don't think that steroids should be allowed in sports because if they were on steroids they would be all mad all the time and want to kill eachother everyplay whether there on the field or in the locker rooms and they would have roid rage toward team member and staff although it would be super entertaining.
I do not think steriods should be allowed, because its unfair to the one who decide not to take them, and i feel like would be cheating to take them, also I think its not worth the risk.
i think the old sports were way better. If you were good, you were actually good on your own accord, because of genetics. Nowadays, anyone can pretty much be strong and fast because of steriods. I think we should go back to our old sports and ban steriod use, not only because of the fact that it is unhealthy, but also because i think that it is kind of cheating if not everyone uses it.
I agree, I think steriod use isn't fair and you should work hard for your abilities. Some people are gifted with good genetics for sports and they don't need steriods.
I do not think steroids should be allowed because if it were allowed you would have to take steroids to be good. Steroids are risty and would not be good for you. It would definately change the integrity of sports.
I think that steriods should not be allowed because it can hurt the athlete and it is an unfair advantage compared to the other players. I think that steriods can be very harmful to the players and that it does affect the integrity of sports because it changes into an unfair game.
I do not think that their should be steriods in sports. I think they that they are a huge health risk and give players a physical advantage. I do think that they would hurt the overall integrity of the sport.
no i dont think that steriods should be allowed. its only intrudcing students to addiction sooner. the health risk is just aws a dangerous as an illegal drug. i do believe they will hurt the inegrity of sports.
I personally do not think that steriods should be allowed in sports, because they unaturlally improve the players strength aspects. Steroids could also create a huge disadvantage for the players that dont want to take steriods and destroy their body.
