    Do on to others, as you would want them to do to you. I think this basic principle or saying is very powerful. If everybody abided by it the world would not have as many problems as it does now. For example people wouldn’t steal because they wouldn’t want their possessions to be stolen or robbed. People wouldn’t kill each other because they wouldn’t want to be killed themselves. This is a saying my parents always drilled into my head ever since I was a few years old and it stuck with me all these years. I try to respect everybody because I like to be respected back. This is the second trait I would like others to remember me…

    As time has evolved and science in medicine has grown, it seems that steroid use has become more and more popular amongst baseball players. We now find our baseball players in the "Steroids Era". Steroids help athletes become stronger and more muscular, which is clearly necessary when trying to make a home run. Many people believe that using steroids is considered cheating and nothing is more "Un-American" as cheating. Steroids didn 't make it to baseballs banned substance list until 1991, and testing for major league players did not begin until the 2003 season. But, the MLB has decided that steroids use will no longer be tolerated.…

    There has been a lot of controversy regarding steroids in baseball. Questions have been asked: does it enhance the player’s ability? Do baseball records today reflect the use of steroids? The most common use of steroids is to increase muscle development and growth, increase stamina and endurance and the reduction of body fat. Steroids are used by players to gain a competitive edge against other players, giving the player the ability to hit the ball farther and to throw the ball harder. In the 90’s Ken Caminitti went on record stating that half of the Major league players are using steroids. Statistics shown Total home runs surpassed the 5,000 mark in the 90’s compared to 4,000 in the 80’s. Steroids in the 1990’s were evident with the home run statistics and multiple players going on record admitting the use of steroids. In 2005 Baseball owners and players came up with stiffer and more stringent penalties. These new penalties are much harsher than the previous ones. This was a quick solution to take a more serious approach to monitor and penalize the use of steroids in the major leagues. For the first offense of steroids a player will receive a…
