Talk about odd reasonings. They will put a ban on steriod use with really good punishment if caught yet they do little about the more illegal drugs like cocaine. Steve Howe of the Dodger/Yankee clubs was 'caught' on 7 occasions and nothing was really done to him as a punishment except tell him he needs to go to rehab and can't play for a few games. Same with Dwight Gooden and Daryl Strawberry to name a couple more.
I do agree whole heartly about the steriod punishments except it should be limited to 2. Caught the first time would be stupid and the second time would be moronic and you're gone permanently.
If you are going to punish for one drug then you must punish for the others. Punishment 'A' should not be a tougher punishment then 'B'.

That's my story and I'm sticking to it.
