Well, not really. There have been many players to take steroids to help them build muscle, and improve their performance, but it is not allowed. You are not allowed to take steroids into sports, but many people do. For example, Alex Rodriguez "A-Rod", the 3rd basemen for the New York Yankees took steroids in 2009. He confessed that he took steroids, so they allowed him to stay in MLB. Although, if they were to catch him red-handed, he most likely would have been taken off of the NYY, and sent home. To answer your question, you are not allowed to take drugs to improve performance in sports, but many people/players do.

Some drugs are illegal in sports because they make you stronger, faster, or more agressive. This is seen as cheating. Some drugs are illegal normally because they're bad for you. Then again, all drugs taken in excess are bad for you.
Drugs in sports makes sports unfair. Or it causes all players to risk their lives more and more to get an edge. So, if drugs in sports are banned, then it is about who trained the most and has the best skill, not who has the best "pharmacist" (or drug dealer).
Steroids are not good in sports because they could harm you and are drugs. You should never use drugs.
Drugs in sports came around 1970.
Most people have taken drugs, but that also depends on what is a drug. Coffee, cigarettes, medicine and even sugar can be considered as drugs.

One needs to be more specific. Which aspect of sports performance? Which sports.
Sports people take drugs because it increases muscle mass and your body will then produce more blood Some of the drugs taken by sports people are false hormones which make you more determined to win Peptide hormones, analogues and anabolic agents all increase the size of muscles or help growth. Diuretics allow you to lose weight by increasing the amount of urine you pass.
It is a fact that 67% of the people who don't play sports do not get involved with drugs. 23% of the kids do choose to do drugs.. It is said that sports keeps your mind off other things.
It all depends on the sport. Different sports have different rules and regulations involving drugs (which are illegal and legal). If the drug happens to be illegal in the sport, disciplinary action will be taken and suspension will probably be the outcome.
please, PLEASE do NOT take drugs!
