MLB should ban everything


With all the hype and hysteria flying around the sports world about the situation Mr. Bonds finds himself in, I've realized that a good resolution for any future mishaps such as this, would be for MLB to ban everything.

I think the first step they should take would be to ban any and all weightlifting and personal training. What's the number one physical stimulant most athletes use to enhance their playing ability and endurance? Exercise. The game would be more pure if the players would rely on their genetic programming and pure natural bodies and abilities. No mucking things up with exercise and training. It's an unfair advantage over those who do let nature run it's natural course. How would the officials monitor this ban? Easy, if you begin to see any rippling muscles, or above average playing ability... they will know that there has been an infraction!

I know a lot of baseball "fans" are upset with Barry because he's hitting lots of home runs, and may eventually pass up old Hank Aaron. They say that he's giving himself an unfair advantage that Hank didn't have. So what? The air was a lot more clean back when Hank played the game. The baseball didn't have to travel through as much crud in the air. Hank didn't have the pressure of Universe wide exposure, and loud "music" and advertisements in his face while trying to play the game. He didn't have to worry about his endorsement deals falling through if his batting average dropped. The worry of islamic terrorists flying a plane into the stadium while he was playing never occured to him. Like him or hate him, Bonds does what he can to get the job done. So let him play, drop the possible indictment for perjury, and stop hasseling him (seriously, now they're going after him for possible tax evasion?)!

There's risks involved in any form of personal enhancement. If players want to alter their physical makeup using steroids, they are risking alot... why not allow them to take the risks if it produces better performance? If other athletes want to compete they will just have to find a way to keep up! Isn't that what "sport" is all about? Doing anything you can to be the best possible player??
