I strongly oppose to such an idea, after all sports is all about physical stamina, which differs from person to person had it been similar for everybody, there would have been no sports at all.

Human body has a limit, the way we’re evolving, beating all records in the way, it’s not just because we’ve adapted our bodies to the requirements and competition, it’s because we’ve made our bodies forcibly adapt according to the growing competition and drugs have played a major role in that, whether it’s an aspirin pill or any steroid. In that case, I don’t think there is anything wrong in legalizing the use of drugs in sports as far as they do not hurt the physical condition of a player. Sports are all about entertainment...and then there will be more thrill....

I strongly disagree with the concept of legalizing drugs in sports because this will not bring out the natural potential of any sportsmen...

If so happens then I think the award of the winner should go to the drug company... because drugs are fastest boosters than any intake of special nutrition, healthy diet coupled with energy drinks, etc.

However, drugs have more side effects than anything else.

Doping is the worst predicament that is bringing the bad repute to the name of the game. Sports is a symbol of peace and friendship, if you start cheating in the name of amity or goodwill, the very essence of games will come to a big naught. Therefore, it shouldn�t be cross the threshold at any cost and should be buried at the bud.

i agree to the legalization of performance enhancing drugs.it’s ultimately the sportsperson who decides whether he want his natural talent or doped one.also physique of each one is different.sometimes a drug which can give enormous benefit to a particular person need not be a banned drug.he can use it freely while others also can but major benefit will be for him.so banning of drugs cannot be assumed to create a homogenous effect

Dear rosmin..! if the prfomnce drugs are legalize, then the sports will remain a competition no more...Instead of contest in participants, the sports will remain more a competition in quality of drugs�...mean the more superior the drug more will be the enhancement in contender�s performance��!

Drugs will diminish the fundamental meaning of sports��.

So, actually you want to show the drug in action instead of sportsmanship. It’s nothing to do with human stamina and the show is of Drug Company as Disha said “I think the award of the winner should go to the drug company”�. Why the bodies of sportsman take the side effects of performance enhancing drugs? If you say sportsman can take the decision than I totally disagree with the argument. If all are taking drugs then just imagine where the person stands who is not taking these performance enhancing drugs. And why we say to legalize these things, even the doctor advice not to take any drug without real need.

I agree with Disha, if drugs are legalized ”the award of the winner should go to the drug company.”

good point Disha.

Why not? If you cant beat them join them.

After all cigarette smoking kills more humans in a year than drugs will ever do in a decade.

And there goes a saying ’if you are not cheating you are not trying hard enough’.

For a winner in any sport discipline, the rewards are many and losers just get counted in the ’they also ran’ category.

But the point remains if drugs are legalised, it will help to develop safer usage levels and since every third sportsmen is using it, the one who is able to beat others without the help of performance enhancing drugs will truly be a winner
