Anti-doping agencies will never eradicate doping from sports

What do you believe about legalization of doping in sports?  Several persons consider that it is time to legalize it. Others don’t agree. What is your opinion?
Those that are against legalization of doping in sports think that anabolic steroids and other related drugs represent essential evil. They may cause serious unwanted results in users. Furthermore, a doper has unfair advantage over a non-doper during competitions.
According to another point of view, intake of steroids and other performance-enhancing drugs should be permitted in sports. Let athletes apply whatever they want! If they want to apply anabolic steroids, let them do it! If they intend to apply other drugs, let them do it! If they want to take several products, let physicians monitor their intake! Physicians know what their patients should do in order to avoid certain side effects. So, doping products will not lead to severe adverse results. As a result, intake of anabolic steroids and other related medicines will be relatively safe for health and life of consumers.
As you know, steroids and other performance-enhancing drugs are currently forbidden in sports. When athletes are suspected and/or found guilty of doping, scandals appear. Such cases are often discussed during TV shows, in magazines, newspapers, on internet, etc. You must know that every scandal commonly contains not only truth but also gossips, exaggerations, etc. As a result, you can’t assure whether some affirmations are true or not.
Those who are against legalization of doping in sports say that sportspersons increase performance unnaturally with the help of anabolic steroids and other related drugs. Discussing about enhancement of athletic performance, you should remember about enhancement of sexual performance, cognitive abilities, improvement of health, etc. Why do we take several medicines and supplements, improving our health and life, while blaming sportspersons who try to promote performance with anabolic steroids and other doping products? Isn’t it hypocrisy? You would notice that steroids and some other performance-enhancing drugs cause health problems. Yes, it is true. But what do you consider about usage of caffeine and nicotine? They are accepted in the society. But it is necessary to notice that caffeine and nicotine result in more severe health troubles than anabolic steroids and other related medications. Nonetheless, users of caffeine and nicotine are not so harshly blamed, as users of steroids.
Anti-doping agencies believe that they will soon eliminate doping from sports. “Sports will be clean”, - they exclaim. But it is necessary to acknowledge that doping will be never eradicated from sports. Anti-doping officers will not be ever able to do it. While they elaborate new tests and increase penalties for usage of banned substances, sportspersons find new ways to avoid detection. So, anyone should comprehend that this “game” will never end, if doping is not legalized in sports.
