That isn't a cop-out to support drug usage or to sell yourself short, those are just the facts. These guys get paid to be the best athletes in the world, be glad they're taking any means necessary to make their sports exciting to watch.
Thank steroids for all of these:
The MLB homerun race in the late 90's.
The big hits in football.
World records in the olympics.
Pro wrestling even being remotely tolerable (it still isn't, but work with me).
Regardless, you can plenty big or strong without steroids. Big not to be confused with strong. Genetics and effort are still the primary factors. And when it comes to pure strength and power, you are either strong or you're not, it doesn't matter what you take.
