But I ask you,<BR>> what is so bad about pro athletes taking steroids? I<BR>> can think of several good things about it: they will<BR>> map out the territory, by demonstrating what happens<BR>> with intense long-term use, point out the health<BR>> problems associated with them. So why not? <BR>> <BR>> Trying to figure out ways to beat the urine and blood <BR>> tests will push medical technology forward. We may <BR>> discover some great cures by trying to pump up athletes. <BR>> <BR>> The fans want to see big pumped up guys swat the<BR>> balls into the bleachers, so they can catch them<BR>> and auction them on eBay.
