Anyone prefer doping in Tennis?

I'd like it if they all played by the same set of rules, whatever they happen to be. It would also be kind of nice if they stopped throwing matches. If I'm watching something that's putatively an athletic contest, I like to think that it's not loaded with deceit. Maybe I'm just horribly naive.

I prefer things like hgh legalized for every sport. It makes the performances better and recovery from injury much quicker. But if it's against the rules there's nothing you can do about it.

Now this is an interesting question. Baseball actually was ok with it for awhile. In the end all these records got broke and the players looked like comic book characters. I don't know. It probably wasn't good for the game. Who knows in the big picture doping in high level sports will always be there.

I don't think you're going to see PED's allowed for the same reason some communities (e.g. California) are now banning CHEWING TOBACCO at major league baseball stadiums -- it's a public relations nightmare. The tobacco increases risk of oral cancers and there's pressure now to not have kids watch their baseball heroes using it. Same deal with PEDs; many, like anabolic steroids, have potential health risks and no sport wants to be seen as setting that sort of example for its fans.
