Drug cheats of any sports should be removed.
Their place as role models for youngsters merits this.  | | The Following 2 Users Say Thank You to GreenBean For This Useful Post: | | |

I agree.
The Dennis Rodmans of the world need to be completely removed from the arena of anything that kids can see.

Yesterday when the Astros caught up to the Jays (before Jays broke loose and won), one guy at the bar was tossed out for hurling his pint at the tv screen in disgust - was funny

Just another vision of grandeur by Rodman - he should be wearing his wedding dress when he makes this declaration

Like GB noted, we need to clean up all sports somehow because many kids look up to these people and with freaks like Rodman, cheaters, druggies etc popping up every day it is not a good thing.

Players at one club were given performance enchaning drugs which were on the banned list.
Club involved denied it...... then an invoice turned up on their books.
oops 
It is sad when a sports hero turns out to be merely human  | |

One of my apps just stated
A Rod, one of baseballs all-time greats get caught up in the doping probe.
HEY---- He is the doper, the ultimate doping cheater and they want to protect him?
He is not one of the all time greats and not even close. No cheater should be even mentioned among the greats like Mantle, Mays, Aaron, Morgan etc etc

The term all time great gets thrown around way to frivolously. Just another overzealous sports writer in using the term a bit too loosely.
Best baseball player I ever saw play was Ken Griffey Jr. He was never mixed in the steroid era and hit over 600 hrs, yet was overshadowed by cheaters like Sosa, McGwire and Bonds.
And best athlete I ever saw was Bo Jackson...guy just did things you will never see again.

LOL
I was going to add his name above with Mantle, Mays, Aaron, Morgan etc but did not.
I enjoyed watching him play as he was so smooth. Injuries kept him from breaking records etc his last 10 years.
Those 3 cheaters you mentioned should never be mentioned on any all time greats list along with Palmerio, A rod etc.
Any player suspended this week for drug use should be banned for life and not given a second chance. Names come out tomorrow I believe.
