The reason why drugs are accepted in sports is that the unions have made it so.   Issues with random drug testing and penalities have been brought into contact discussion and soundly voted down by the members of the unions.   The performance enhancing drugs that have been used were legal. Again, the union would not permit their banishment.

This is not a case about ethics or character. It is about the rules. I do agree that ethics and character should also play a role.   Time will tell if either Sosa or McGwire get elected to the Hall.
