Baseball's Designated Hitter

I think the National League should have the designated hitter. A lot of pitchers can't hit and they could get hurt taking batting practice or even swinging the bat in the game. Also, the pitcher wouldn't have to be lifted for a pinch hitter if he's effective and there's men on base. Depending on who the designated hitter is, there can be flexibility in the lineup. Before I was against the designated hitter but now that I thought about it some more, I'm in favor of it.

Strategies in sports

Some strategies in sports seem to backfire because they're really not too successful. In hockey teams will pull the goalie for a fifth skater but this usually results in an empty net goal. Although it has worked it doesn't work too often. In baseball you have the drawn-in infield in order to cut off a run. The hitter usually slaps the ball through the infield and the run scores anyway.

The way hockey is played these days is different than in the past. Teams are looking for fast skaters. There still are fights but not as much as in the days of the Broad st bullies. It hurts your team when your player is in the penalty box. Another key to the game is strong goaltending. Although there are some good goalies out there, they don't compare to guys like Bernie Parent.

performance drugs

I think performance-enhancing drugs don't belong in sports. It is actually a form of cheating when you look at it. Active players who took it before that are not taking it now are seeing their statistics drop.

Prevent Defense

The prevent defense in football is not too smart to use unless you have a big lead. All this does is prevent you from winning the game because the other team just marches down the field. They gain chunks of yardage at a crack and score quickly in just a short amount of time. So if you're leading by a touchdown the other team can tie the score in no time and it doesn't make any difference how much time is on the clock.
