Don’t be remembered with an asterisk

How do you feel when you find out a person you admire is a fake? For me, it’s a mix of sadness and disappointment.

We’ve heard news reports and testimonial lately from various professional athletes who lived a lie, because they abused steroids. These people have let down admiring fans and ruined their professional careers. But when you break the rules there are consequences, right?

So to see what happens when teen athletes use steroids, check out this new video from the Ad Council. It may make you laugh, but it’s so true.

In my opinion it’s better to try and fail than to cheat and succeed. After all, remember that old saying: “Cheaters never win.”
