Cheating: Is the short term gain will be worth the long term pain?

Many think that the short term gain is worth the long term pain but it isn't. In addition, using steroids is cheating, and there is nothing worse in sports than a cheater. Don’t do it.”

George Mitchell

Reflection:

What I think the quote means is when you use steroids its only good for a while. Like you can be good or the best in a while but in the long run it won’t be so great. It would be shame in your name. It won’t only cost you but also your teammates and family. It won’t be worth it because you won’t be able to say you did it all by yourself. Everything you earned would just go to the trash. You’re asked to give up your medals. So what’s the point in working hard and using drugs if what you earned is just being taken away from you? There isn’t a point to do drugs to get better in a sport it’s better to do it honestly or don’t do it at all.
