[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 574892, member: 1550"] I'm with slsh on this. There is nothing noble about anyone who dopes up. They are role models for our kids, whether they want to be or not and our children watch what they do. On the basesball front, I was glad that Barry Bonds and Roger Clemons (who I tagged as a doper way before anyone would dare to believe me) were kept out of the HOF. They aren't fit to walk on the same sidewalks as Michael Jordan and Hank Aaron. However, I'll keep Michael Vick aka Michel Sick in his own category. Doping isn't as bad as dog fighting and electrocuting and torturing man's best friend...they probably loved him until he killed them. And what about the athlete that killed his girlfriend and then himself? Are we supposed to feel sorry for him? They acted like he was a tragic guy rather than a murderer who also killed himself so his girlfriend's family could never see justice done. Athletes were never perfect, but they used to be on a good persona at least for the kids. Now they don't even try. Lance Armstrong is suffering from his own self-made problems. [/QUOTE]
