Thesis reconsidered

At the beginning of the venture into the research proposal, I thought most of the work would go into researching. Huh. This hasn't been the case...

Composing a strong thesis statement has been the most difficult battle. There are so many aspects of anabolic steroid use in American sports that I've felt like a kid in a candy store. Most of the work I've put in over the last week (between moving and renovating my basement) consisted of muddling through my thoughts and research to sculpt a clean, more specific thesis.

THESIS STATEMENT: The Federal law that placed anabolic steroids in Schedule III of the Controlled Substances Act was created to address a professional sports cheating issue, but it effects all Americans. Very little scientific research was considered with the passing of this law.
