On-field drugs is highly unprofessional and inconsistent with the revolution to clean the game up of PED's and other drugs. It's also a rather bad example for kids and young adults looking to be just like their heroes as they play ball.<br /><br />Tobacco is banned at every level of Baseball except the MLB. It's also illegal for fans to use in nearly every stadium. Bud Selig is trying to take it off the field as well. Yes, these are grown men who have every freedom which I respect. But on the field drugs need to be done away with and replaced with another product that is not harmful to a players health especially something that is not carcinogenic.<br /><br />If tobacco was taken off the field young kids wouldn't have to view players using drugs on the field. I believe it would instantly benefit the players and their health too from 2-5 hours less of tobacco use each day. If they choose to use it off the field that's 100% up to them. Nobody can take your rights away off the field. But we all have limitations of what we can or cannot do while at our places of work. PROFESSIONAL baseball should be able to back up what they stand for. "K Cancer" & "Stand UP To Cancer"<br /><br />Each signature sends a direct letter to the desktop of MLB Executives & MLB Players Association.<br /><br />Be consistent and clean up the game of baseball all around. <br />Will you join us in K'ing Cancer? Lets knock it out of the park!!<br /><br />Will you STAND UP To Cancer?<br />http://chn DOT ge/1pceCatAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04696399488573165601noreply@blogger.com
