"Many think that the short term gain will be worth the long term pain, but it isn't. In addition, using steroids is cheating, and there is nothing worse in sports than a cheater. Don't do it."- George Mitchell

Cheating is not a good thing to do. If you cheat then the guilt will lie deep inside of you. Using something for an advantage is considered cheating. Anything that will help you do better than you usually do is considered cheating. A cheater just ruins the sport and makes it hard for other teams to do good because there is a cheater. For example, If you cheat on a test then it'll be like lying to yourself. Cheaters are people who ruin the game and reputation. The guilt is something they'll have until they can come clean and say what they did. It's true when there is nothing worse in sports than a cheater. It matters in best to not cheat.

“Character matters most.”- Dale Murphy

What this quote means is that of all the things character is the one that matters the most. People need a good character so people could appreciate them. People with no character don’t really get appreciated. The easiest way to make people look up to you is to have a good character. For example some people with no good character don’t really get looked up too because they are either rude or not caring about others. But people with good character are nice, kind, and don’t judge others. Character really does matter on the way people see it. Not having a character can really affect you in the future because so many people look for someone who has good grades and has a great character to get into college. Having a good character can do so much for you and others.
