The big issue here is this: Should our govern- /Mantle ment be using valuable time debating whether or not there is a steroid problem in baseball? Should we as taxpayers be funding a government that will Octm take hours debating an issue that is not pertinent to national security? Or the war in Iraq? There are just so many questions coming from these recent trials that they seem to make no sense at all. Baseball has always been known as America's national pastime. Does that fact make it okay for our government to dedicate resources to because they can't govern themselves? The only valid argument for why this should hap- pen is because of younger children, who are grow- ing up looking at these famous players, such as Barry Bonds, Jason Giambi, and so many others, and thinking that to make it in this sport they need to look like they do. Now there are players who have never used steroids and have dedicated their lives to get- ting in such pristine physical shape that they do little else.
