ds. If level of professional athletics is not so high then maybe the college and high school athletes will not feel as much pressure to perform at such a high level. Certain high schools are already taking the steps needed to cut down on the numbers of high school athletes using steroids. In North Carolina, the Gaston County school system began random drug testing student athletes. (WRAL 5 Online, 1999)In conclusion steroid use is not only unfair to true meaning of the game but it is also unfair the player’s teammates and their opponents. Professional athletes need to be better role models and learn to grow up and start doing things on their own. The risk of steroids are too high and may be life threatening in some cases. The Professional athletes need to understand this, then maybe the younger athletes will follow in the footsteps of their role models and learn to accomplish something on their own too....
