Actually, it isn't worth the wasted tax dollars if they don't address the issue; Take the Barry Bonds case for a prime example. And the players that stepped up before & exposed themselves & others using steroids. It will becoma an "accepted" issue, just putting asterisks next to records broken. A cheater is a cheater and the athletes that use steroids these days are in no way comparable to the actual athletes that made the records. What a disgrace for children to admire such a fake and the role model image is shattered by these losers.

I believe MLB Commissioner, Allan (Bud) Selig, has always been a stand-up guy, who encourages players, coaches and team GM's to act responsibly if they want to play at the professional level. He says the league will deal with the steroid issue on a case-by-case basis. To me, cheating is not acting responsibly. It doesn't matter if "x" number of people are doing it.

Success at any cost is usually not worth it in the long-run. Steroid use to enhance performance in sports is one example.

Clemens is no big surprise-Look how he turned his back on the Red Sox in his quest for rings. And Barry Bonds? His off-field personna is a joke-He dosen't sign autographs & dosen't contribute anything to the Hall Of Fame-Ironically, his stuff would be worthless trash now anyway. I like Gary Sheffield but it wouldn't surprise me with the attitudes he has with baseball officials and society. They'll just make two separate record books and drug abuse will have another issue of support.
