Does Doping by Pro Athletes Affect Youth Sports?

Between the Baseball Hall of Fame vote being marred by steroid use by potential candidates like Roger Clemens and Barry Bonds and the Lance Armstrong sit-down with Oprah where he admitted to cheating during his cycling career, the use of performance enhancing drugs in professional sports has been in the news all month long.

We're wondering if the news from the professional sporting world makes its way down to the youth and high school sports levels.

Lindenhurst Patch wants to know what you think about this issue.

What message does this send our children performing in youth and high school sports activities in our area? What do you - or your coaches - tell your kids about use of steriods and similar drugs?
