    BCS, because it absolutely robs deserving teams of having a chance to win a national championship. Steriods and PEDS issue I don't care about. There have been PEDS use since the 50's and probably even earlier. Why it is an issue now all of a sudden I have no idea.

        The BCS is atrocious, and I'm hardly a college football fan. They rob teams of deserving spots based purely on money. Disgusting.

        NFL - Buffalo Bills

          Seriously? The BCS is leading this poll?

          Athletes who take steroids are setting a terrible example for the kids who look up to them. Not to mention the health risks involved. People's health trumps how a system picks a National Champion any day of the week.

              People being stupid is their own deal.

              The BCS affects the competition of the sport. The prevalence of roids meant that no team gained any real advantage.

                  The BCS system doesn't give us a real champion in one of the most popular sports in America. While steriods does inflate stats and sets bad examples for kids, it does not mess with the integrity of the season since players from every team are doing it and thus it evens itself out.

                  Sure Bonds doesn't deserve the home run record and Clemens doesn't deserve all those wins and the big contracts. But it didn't help them win championships because at the same time Arod, Tejada, and countless others were cheating also.

                  EDIT: Cebby made the same point 2 posts ago...I should really learn to read the whole thread before posting.

                        I would say the BCS because its judged the same way as synchronized swimming. I could care less about steroids because that's a personal choice. If you suck you suck. I'm sure star players aren't the only ones using it. On a side note why do professional athletes have to be role models?

                          BCS, easily.

                          I couldn't care less about steroids. If it effs up their health, sucks for them, they should have known better. Worse than the steroids issue, is the ridiculous witch hunt against the big name players who make up 0.01% of the players that have taken steroids.
