Everyone is juicing, so why stop them? Story after story comes out about how players are caught using steroids and how they deny the claim, players didn't knowingly take steroids, or attacking innocent people when they are caught. There are two options that the commissioner has, that's to make the punishments tougher when a player is caught or to let steroids and any other enhancing products legal.  The era of non steroid sports is over! Or is it? Millions of people still watch baseball, and forgive and forget those who have cheated, Braun, Cabrera, Cruz, and Colon to name a few. Is this the message that we want to send to youths in athletics, that you can cheat and still make millions? How about those professional athletes who have worked hard and kept their bodies clean from drugs? Or the money and time invested by the team? In order to keep players clean, and baseball records honest the punishments have to be a first offense, 1 year suspension and 2nd offense, a lifetime ban. You could say its a "punishment on steroids".
