Are you as tired as I am of all the hullabaloo...is that how you spell it?...about athletes taking performance-enhancing drugs? My guess is a zillion do and I, for one, see no harm in it. Athletes do all sorts of thing to enhance their abilities...exercise, dietary, special training things...why not a drug? My taking one will not on its own make me a superstar. I still have to have natural abilities that the drug can enhance.
I was wondering if there was`a`drug that would make you smarter, would we say: "Nope, no way. We live in a`competitive world. Taking brain-enhancing drugs is not fair. The druggie is more likely to get the better job and make more money, but he is not really smarter. It's just the drug. Unfair advantage!" Would we say that?
This is for the guys only. What if there was`a drug that would get you any girl you wanted. Take a couple?
A drug that allowed you to speak in public without being nervous. That completely eliminated the pain of childbirth, Would you take them?
And what if there was a drug that would immediately add 10 years to your life. Take it?
What's the problem?
What? Oh, athletics is the special, sanctified, God-purified, hallowed, beatified, consecrated, aspect of our lives? Didn't know that. Ban him for life!
