Introduction
All sports are beautiful and the sportsmen who participate are role models for kids. The games end being ugly when some players cheat and when the officiating is biased. The cheating culture in such games causes scandals and misconduct to grab the limelight than it should.
Sometimes little or no actions are taken and a lot of unfairness is displayed at the end of it all. Cheating in today 's global sporting world has become very common since players and officials put their selfish gains first at the expense of the enjoyment and fun of the game.
Take a look at some of the most famous and unfortunate missteps that have taken place in the sporting world. These examples are very common in major sports. They need to be dealt with in …show more content…
This was very unfair to the Canadians because their efforts were never awarded appropriately and in time. It was also very discouraging to the Canadian skaters who took their time to prepare extremely well for the competition hoping to perform and win the competition.

Legalizing the use of steroids by athletes is like accepting machines or robots to participate in the athletics. It is unethical behavior and strict measures should be taken against all those who are found positive of the steroids.
Nowadays, we here in the news every now and then that certain athletes are accused of using these steroids. The World Anti-doping Agency has asked all countries that participate in athletics to sign the anti-doping bill, with Kenya being the most recent to sign.
