Criminal Athletes: Steroids

  • What reasons does Phil Taylor give for allowing athletes to take performance enhancing drugs? (PEDs)
  • The fact that athletes would be extremely good at what they do and the fact that all of these criminal prosecutions and accusations would end.
  • Why does he reference Ryan Braun, Roger Clemens, Barry Bonds, and Lance Armstrong? What do they have in common? (besides that they were investigated).
  • He references them in order to give examples of what he is talking about. Something that they all had in common is that they all came away with minor punishments.
  • What is the purpose of Phil Taylor's editorial? What is he saying about the world of performance enhance
  • He wants to talk about the effects of it and of certain circumstances in which it has caused problems. Overall PED is not good.
