Tome Verducci believes that doping is not connected with immorality

The American sportswriter Tom Verducci explains about debates connected with rughts of steroid users to be chosen for the Baseball Hall of Fame. But as it usually happens, this explanation manifests just confusion of reporters about steroids.
The Baseball Writers Association of America (BWAA) is a professional association of baseball reporters that elect players for the National Baseball Hall of Fame. All journalists who are members of the BWAA already not less than 10 years have possibility to vote for up to 10 players for the Hall of Fame.
Recently a debate took place between members of the BWAA. They discussed whether admitted or only suspected users of steroids and other forbidden medicines might entry into Cooperstown.
Members of the BWAA usually must comment their votes: they have to explain why they have voted pro or contra certain affirmations. Some of them confirm that doping destroys the integrity of sports and intake of banned products is frequently claimed by them to be immoral.
As for Verducci, he doesn’t believe that intake of steroids is necessarily a moral question. He notes that steroids help users to take unfair advantage over those who don’t take banned preparations. According to this writer, performance-enhancing drugs make competitions unfair. Thus, usage of prohibited medications promotes unfairness in sports. That’s why Verducci denies any link between doping and morality. This sportswriter claims that it is a question that is related to performance but not to morality. So, Verducci suggests that consumers of steroids must not be allowed to be in the Hall of Fame. But he has voted for Jeff Bagwell, an admitted steroid user. This sportsperson has acknowledged that he had administrated androstenedione. It is important to notice that this drug was not listed among anabolic steroids, when Bagwell used it. According to the Control Act 2004, it is listed among banned products. Since it wasn’t legally clamed to be a steroid, Tom Verducci decided to vote for the user of this medicine; however, it was always named an anabolic-androgenic steroid by specialists. Moreover, it was said that Bagwell just became bigger but didn’t induce his performance due to administration of androstenedione.
Nevertheless, the decision of Tom Verducci to vote for the admitted user of the steroid is quite controversial. The following question appears: “Maybe Verducci is not against intake of steroids and other performance-enhancing drugs by sportspersons?” Since this sportswriter doesn’t agree that usage of steroids is a moral question, he may suppose that increase of performance is not a real problem.
A lot of persons suppose that intake of steroids represents evil because they are illegal.
