Roid Rage

Athletes have long been looking for ways to better themselves; whether it be by training more, eating better, or recovering more. In business and politics, shortcuts are encouraged by many and are applauded by the public; but when shortcuts are discussed in competitive sporting ,the debate tends to  get a little more heated. The use of steroids has long been public knowledge and it is not ground-breaking news to us anymore. anabolic steroids are made in laboratories and have the same chemical structure as the steroids found in the male sex hormone testosterone. The muscle-building (anabolic) and masculinizing (androgenic) effects of these drugs make them appealing to athletes and bodybuilders. So the question that bogs us all is, are they ethical ? To some the answer may simply be “No, they are not. They give athletes an unfair advantage” this does not seem to be the case for Raymmar Triado , the author of Is It Time To Say Yes To Steroids In Professional Sports? He puts forward a compelling argument in favor of their use by explaining that they are not like magic potions. Triado uses figurative language , irony , and even includes parallelism in his articles. His argument is that why do steroids need to be band in an era where the athletes are trying to better themselves in their respective fields of sport. Triado reveals that we all use things that make us feel better such as: coffee, Adderall , and cigarettes. The Author emphasizes the fact that if we can use prescriptions and legal drugs ( coffee ) to make ourselves feel and operate on a much higher level then athletes are not to be an exception. Steroids are and will remain to be a center of controversy and an endlessly debated topic. Whether It is ethical or not , that remains up to the user themselves.
