Just a quick thought that I had recently. A hint to competitors out there considering steroid use, blood doping, ergogenic drugs, etc...
.
People don’t want to see a contest of whose drug is better – otherwise there would be a pharmacokinetics section in the newspaper instead of a sports section. People want to see endurance and the possibility of an underdog doing something phenomenal in the face of adversity. That is what sport is all about anyway.
.
So, if you don’t think you will stand a chance without using steroids because everybody else seems to be doing it, don’t bother. If you have to resort to doping to even the odds then you’ll be an even bigger loser no matter the outcome of the match.
