Publisher's Synopsis
HOW DRUGS ARE THE BIGGEST THREAT TO SPORTS Understand this—doping in sport is almost never, I repeat, almost never accidental. It is almost always planned and deliberate. It is carried out with the specific intention of enhancing performance, knowing that it goes against the rules of sport and that it is dangerous to the health of the athlete. WHY YOU SHOULD CARE Do you want your children to be forced to become chemical stockpiles in order to be successful in sport, simply because of cheaters who are using drugs and who could not care less that they are compromising their whole sport? AND WHAT CAN BE DONE ABOUT THEM Doping is cheating, and there must be consequences for that. Serious penalties for doping will show that cheaters are not welcome and will act as a deterrent to discourage others from cheating. Doping in sport can be beaten. We just need to persevere. But like that old '60s slogan states: “If you are not part of the solution, you are part of the problem.”
