Academic Language Week 21 - Steroids

Should performance enhancing drugs, such as steroids, be allowed in sports, no, they should not. Performance enhancing drugs should not be allowed in sports because it takes away the spirit or the game that you are playing. For example football, if everybody used performance enhancing drugs such as steroids, the game wouldn't be football anymore it would be crazy people throwing each other and what not and it would basically take away the tradition of football or any sport at that matter.. Also it should not be allowed because it would take away the need for effort and take away the heart of a true athlete. There are plenty of other reasons why these sort of drugs should not be allowed but the primary reason why is that it is extremely unhealthy for the user if they use it for a long period of time or even a short period, either way it is still unhealthy for the user. So all in all what I am trying to say is that performance enhancing drugs should not, in any type of way, be used in sports.
