I for one would like to see how far we could push human performance in all sporting events.
At what cost?
There are far too many known risks to steroid use. Why encourage it?
Although, in a way, I suppose we already do.
I remember my father talking about this and his views on steroid use in the Olympics went like this.
Everyone with even a tiny bit of brains knows the steroid use over the long term is harmful and potentially lethal. Knowing that, why bother testing? Athletes just find better masking agents and employ doctors to design a regime that will help them "test clean". Why not just say fuck it. You can use whatever you want, no testing whatsoever. After the "super athletes" start dying off, maybe common sense will rear it's ugly head and athletes will start choosing to be clean rather than risking their life.
I know, utopian thinking.

Personally I don't give a rats ass if they are clean, dirty, whatever. I also won't mourn their premature deaths either.
