The reporter Dan Le Batard notes that it is necessary to think over our attitude to doping. Do we evaluate various athletes identically? Do we accept application of steroids and other related medications by athletes? What is our real attitude to sportspersons that utilize steroids and/or other performance-enhancing drugs/procedures? Do we admire of those that have success in sports because of steroids and other related remedies?
Sometimes the society is guilty for doping of sportspersons. The society should be demonized for abnormal actions of sportspersons. The society expresses admiration of abnormal things that occur in sports. The society expresses admiration of those that have ligaments removed from cadavers. The society praises sportspersons that are involved in various abnormal actions: playing football with catheter, cutting fingers off, etc. Athletes do a lot to be prominent. They submit to various procedures that are not needed for their health. Moreover, they apply such products and procedures that cause various health problems in them. Why do they do such things? The answer is evident: they want to hear words of admiration; they desire to become celebrated. Thus, they do it in the name of physical performance. While athletes use remedies which result in serious harm in them, we support their behavior through our admiration, awards, money, etc.
Actually, the society is hypocritical. While we are used to blame steroids and certain other prohibited products, we don’t condemn sportspersons that utilize various procedures for increase of their physical performance. While we demonize certain dopers, we admire of others. Why are certain medications and procedures prohibited for enhancement of performance, while others are allowed? Let be reasonable! If you demonize steroids, don’t support those who use alternatives to these medications which are also able to promote physical performance. If you desire to see natural abilities of athletes, don’t praise those that submit to different procedures for enhancement of physical performance! Before you demonize or admire someone/something, think over this aspect! Don’t hurry and be honest!
