I think that s ridiculous, but obviously there are some people who take steroids and play major league baseball. People try to cheat all the time. <br>Chicago White Sox Royce Clayton agrees with testing for steroids.  It sends a message that steroids are a substance you don t want to mess around with and that there is no place for them in the game. We are role models, and that s the most important thing a player has to understand. As soon as we test and the game is clean, the better it will be for everybody. <br> I would like to see testing, said Braves outfielder Gary Sheffield.  I mean you see how much guys are using it. Unless you ve got something to hide, you won t mind testing, right? <br>Kansas City Royals outfielder Mike Sweeney believes leaguewide testing might be the only way to settle the question.  If you re a player that is clean and other players are out there who are not clean, it gives the other players an unfair advantage, said Sweeney. He wants to create a level playing field.<br>I have always disagreed with calling steroids performance enhancing drugs. When you do, everyone automatically assume Mustangs.&nbsp; The only thing I could tell my team was God had something in mind for us. </P> <P>Now we had lost three All-State players but we shut out the next team by rushing for 268-yards using 10 different backs.&nbsp; Even though we had some key players out, due to injuries, the team improved and continued to win.&nbsp; Our All-American running back had four carries for 76-yards, but was still limping.</P> <P>The play-offs started with a few of our hurt players coming off injured reserve.&nbsp; Star running back, Yohance Humphrey and All-State player Roger Patterson had recovered from knee injuries and joined a team that won two games without them.&nbsp; Our experience really paid off this year.&nbsp; Before, it seemed like we were asking people to give blood at the hospital.&nbsp; We kept getting better through the play-offs, even winning in a snow storm.&nbsp; But it was not over yet.&nbsp; The Semi-final game also came down to the wire.&nbsp; Our running back ran for 311 yards and looked like he was about 90% in comparison with his usual game performance.</P> <P>The state championship game came down to the two best teams; champs and runners-up from last year's performance, Chugiak's Mustangs and Palmer's Moose.&nbsp; Each team had two great backs, two excellent quarterbacks and each offense accustomed to getting its way on the field.&nbsp; The defenses on each team were loaded with talented players.&nbsp; Each team had healed from earlier injuries.&nbsp; The team who wanted it the most and who had prepared the best and the hardest during the year would walk away with the trophy and title of state champions.&nbsp; There was never any doubt that we wanted to do everything in our power to win.&nbsp; We believe that first you must win in the weight room.&nbsp; When we had Dr. Greg Shepard to Alaska to speak to our players, he asked us if we wanted to win.&nbsp; The question is a touchy one.&nbsp; We had lost the last two state championships each by 5 points.&nbsp; By the weight room door is a sign--#11.&nbsp; Dr. Shepard asked the team on a scale of one to ten, how hard do you think you hav
