Barry Bonds, Mark McGwire, and Roger Clemens were all undeniably great baseball players. Yet, if you ask the average fan what comes to mind at the mention of any of their names (or dozens of others), the answer will be steroids. Baseball's steroid era left a black mark on the game's reputation that is only now starting to fade.

However, some fans think that the use of performance-enhancing drugs was not only no big deal, but should be encouraged. Several prominent people have spoken out in favor of the legalization of Human Growth Hormone in baseball, and Larry King just became the latest to do so, according to TMZ.

King is an unabashed baseball fan, and he simply does not see what the big deal is about HGH. He goes on to compare the drug to aspirin, arguing that it helps players recover and stay healthy rather than transforming them into superhumans.

King himself has been on the pill for a long time, which could be one of the reasons that he argues that it is not just some pharmaceutical fountain of youth.

King is not the only famous name to advocate the use of HGH in professional sports. Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban has said that he would be open to legalizing it if scientific studies can provide evidence of its benefits.
