Ok, I give up. This story has finally pushed me over the edge. I have always been the one to give everybody every possible benefit of the doubt, but as of today I will assume that anyone that can
jump higher
run faster
lift more
ride a bike faster
swim longer
hit more home runs
score more goals
bowl better
sweep a mean curling broom
speak louder
hit harder
eat more
or in any other way prove themselves to be “superior” to another human must be taking steroids. Athletes of the world, you are an embarrassment and you make all of us out here ashamed of you. And ashamed of ourselves for idolizing you. You have proven yourselves not to be superior but actually inferior. Thanks for ruining sports. Way to go.
Bastards.
What really frosts it for me is that whenever these people get caught, we hear the “But I didn’t know it was steroids” line. They’re cheaters. Do they have to insult my intelligence, too?
K-
It wouldn’t be so insulting if they didn’t spend years insisting they never took steroids, only to admit later that they did. Way to set an example there.
I’ve got an uncle who used anabolic steroids and totally added 8 decibels and 14 inches(!) to his farts. It was totally work the liver cancer.
And don’t forget “Turn Left Faster in Great Big Circle”
I watched her contrite and tearful apology and I was mildly nauseated. She was well into it when I realized she wasn’t going to say “I took steroids,” so I changed the channel. Wish I could tell her - and Michael Vick: Confession is saying what you did and that you’re sorry, not why we should feel sorry for you.
