Can you imagine? Now imagine what can be done about it...
First and foremost, all season ticket holders, from the moment they had a documented junkie playing on their team till the present, should be refunded all monies paid to watch ATHLETES ON DRUGS. Why?
Without those stars (those supermen on drugs slapping homeruns, those stoppers, the young award winners, the MVPs, etc) baseball would not have drawn the crowds it did. The fans bought a false product; the supermen were ATHLETES ON DRUGS! Not that we can tell the difference between the two except every once in a while superman forgets he's a role model and murders a few people, usually culminating in a suicide. But the point is: we'll pay to see the best an individual can give naturally, but we want to believe in fairness. Nobody is going to pay to see an unfair contest (unless it's big time wrestling), therefore season ticket holders should be refunded their money. They were sold an fraudulent product.
Secondly, all steroid users should be put in the witness protection program. Barry, Roger, the runner, the bicyclist... make them all disappear. Then wipe the record books clean. Only fair records! We shouldn't be reminded, as we go through our more and more demanding days (cheating on taxes, speeding, overcharging, lying, and hustling to make ends meet) that the world isn't fair. It's not like any of us would do whatever we could to win. Those cheating bastards giving us what we wanted and then lying about how they delivered. And the money they were paid! I wouldn't do a few drugs for tens of millions.
Third, and most important, let's establish the steroids league. Players can do any drugs, steroids, hype they want. Fans can be sure they are getting the max in the athletes that they support. Everybody will be superman, or get on the shit, and since everybody will be involved, it's fair.
If your team is a loser you can change pharmacist. The athletes can be housed in special, luxury living 'areas' so that when they occasionally lose track of what is really important (winning) and start killing, we can confine the damage.
Additionally, it will be easier to study the long term affects of steroid use and see if the money is worth the damage?
Do they prolong careers? Do they grow hair? Can I be nineteen again? Huh? Pony up!
