Steroid Debate: Q & A, part 1 (8 of 14)

The motion: "We should accept performance-enhancing drugs in competitive sports"

Moderator: Bob Costas
Speaking for the motion: Radley Balko, Norman Fost and Julian Savulescu
Speaking against the motion: George Michael, Dale Murphy and Richard Pound

IQ2US marks the launch of Oxford-style debating -- one motion, one moderator, three advocates for the motion, three against -- in New York City. Each evening begins at 6:00P with a complimentary cocktail period. As you enter the theater before the debate starts at 6:45P, you cast your vote for or against the evening's motion. Those results are displayed midway through the debate as each side makes its statements. After all six panelists speak, the audience has a chance to ask the speakers questions and vote again. The debate finishes with brief summations from the panelists, the votes are tallied and a winning side is declared.

Norman Fost has the right idéa. George Michael is a prick! How does he think sports would survive after we strip every athlete of every preformance enhancing drug down to zero. No new records would be broken, no more superathletes would impress people. Sports would be an industri on the brink of destruction. If he knew a world where there was no doping in sports he would not want it. plain and simple
