Baseball is entertainment ..... period. these guys play because they get paid. not because they want to be role models. (that should be the responsibility of the parents, but that's another discussion)
as long as i'm enjoying what i'm watching...... i could care less what these players are taking.

I
almost completely agree with this. My only problem is when I look at it as if my son made it to the big leagues, and he gets pressured into taking steroids because it's the best, most efficient way to compete. Then one day he comes home and dies before I do because of what he put in his body while he was doing his job.
It would have been best had there never been anyone that ever took PEDs. But since it has happened, we need to find a way to not allow it to happen anymore and move one. What's done is done, and we all just need to move on.
It's naive to think the home run records will NEVER be broken. One day, someone will come along that will be the best baseball player to ever play the game. And then another day will come when the same thing happens, and then again, and again. That is of course as long as the game of baseball exists.
