Steroids were not banned by baseball until 2 years ago. So technically, these players were not breaking any baseball rules. And yes, I do believe that baseball should not have to make a rule to make something illegal that is already legally against the law. This where the player's union needs to be held accountable.

I never understood why baseball didn't need to make coke and pot use illegal, but they need to create a rule that makes steroids illegal. Once again, this falls to the player's union. Coke and pot don't make you a better player, but steroids will, so the players union will fight tooth and nail to try and keep it around. Just look at the joke of a punishment scale they have. Why in the world doesn it take 5 or more times of being caught before they realize there is a problem. Getting the caught the second time should clue enough there is a problem.

Last year there was a fistfight between fans and players at a professional basketball game. Not to be outdone, the National Hockey League has announced that not only will several fans be beaten every period, but one lucky fan each game will be run over by the Zamboni.
