....all responses are greatly appreciated.

Do you believe that Major League Baseball?s current steroid policy is strict enough? If not what should if be? Yes, the current policy is fine.

 

Do you think the government should get involved in controlling illegal steroid use in Major League Baseball? No.

 

Do you believe that the use of steroids in MLB will have an influence on young children using steroids? No.

What percentage of players do you believe use (or have used) steroids?

5% now (20% before)

 

Do you believe recent records have been tainted by the use of steroids?

YES

 

Do you believe that Major League Baseball?s current steroid policy is strict enough? If not what should if be?

Not yet, but it will be. 50 games for 1st warning, season ban for 2nd, and lifetime ban for 3rd offense.

 

Do you think the government should get involved in controlling illegal steroid use in Major League Baseball?

No

 

Do you believe that the use of steroids in MLB will have an influence on young children using steroids?

Yes

What percentage of players do you believe use (or have used) steroids?

 

10-15%

 

Do you believe recent records have been tainted by the use of steroids?

 

Nope.

 

Do you believe that Major League Baseball?s current steroid policy is strict enough? If not what should if be?

 

I don't really care about steroids, but if you're going to do it, do it right. So, no, it's not. 50-Season-Lifetime would be my 1st-2nd-3rd offenses.

 

Do you think the government should get involved in controlling illegal steroid use in Major League Baseball?

 

Absolutely not.

 

Do you believe that the use of steroids in MLB will have an influence on young children using steroids?

 

Young children? No. High school kids? To some extent. I would imagine steroid use among high school athletes is more prevalent in football. As for young kids, unless it's Steve from Blue's Clues on the 'roids, I doubt they notice.

What percentage of players do you believe use (or have used) steroids? 2-5%

 

Do you believe recent records have been tainted by the use of steroids? No

 

Do you believe that Major League Baseball?s current steroid policy is strict enough? If not what should if be? No, Use The 50, 100, Lifetime Ban

 

Do you think the government should get involved in controlling illegal steroid use in Major League Baseball? No

 

Do you believe that the use of steroids in MLB will have an influence on young children using steroids? No

Research Question: Is steroid use in the MLB a problem and how

are the fans perceiving this?

 

What percentage of players do you believe use (or have used) steroids?

8%

Do you believe recent records have been tainted by the use of steroids?

Yes

Do you believe that Major League Baseball's current steroid policy is strict enough? If not what should if be?

Yes

Do you think the government should get involved in controlling illegal steroid use in Major League Baseball?

No

Do you believe that the use of steroids in MLB will have an influence on young children using steroids?

No

What percentage of players do you believe use (or have used) steroids?

20%

 

Do you believe recent records have been tainted by the use of steroids?

No. I think MLB was happy to see all those home runs putting bodies in the seats following the strike and silently encouraged steroid use by not testing.

 

Do you believe that Major League Baseball?s current steroid policy is strict enough? If not what should if be?

No. I think the 1st offence should be 1/2 year suspension. 2nd would be 1 season suspension. 3rd would be lifetime ban.

 

Do you think the government should get involved in controlling illegal steroid use in Major League Baseball?

No. Baseball needs to fix this themselves. If they can not, then I think the government would have to and that would make MLB look really bad.

 

Do you believe that the use of steroids in MLB will have an influence on young children using steroids?

I don't think so. The fact that to this day no one knows for sure that certain players have used probably helps. I don't think kids were saying "Well if Barry Bonds uses steroids I should too." I think this would be much more likely to affect young players at the A, AA, and AAA levels.
