00:00:00 #1 I'm Dave Winfield of the New York Yankees.
00:00:04 #2 Many of you have seen me on the field, but I'd like to talk to you today about what I
00:00:07 #3 do off the field.
00:00:10 #4 For the past few years, I've been involved in the fight against drug abuse, particularly
00:00:14 #5 with kids through my organization, the Winfield Foundation.
00:00:18 #6 This past year, however, at the urging of the Drug Enforcement Administration and your
00:00:22 #7 president, Mr. Eddie Fritz, I've agreed to get involved in drug prevention and
00:00:27 #8 education at a national level.
00:00:29 #9 I recognized that the national effort was consistent with my efforts with the Windfield Foundation
00:00:35 #10 in the New York metropolitan area.
00:00:38 #11 As a result of my training and orientation by the leaders in law enforcement and drug rehabilitation,
00:00:44 #12 I've traveled the country extensively visiting with young people, coaches, and parents on
00:00:50 #13 the dangers of drug abuse.
00:00:53 #14 With me, it's more than a public service.
00:00:55 #15 It's a commitment I have as an individual who can influence our young people.
00:01:00 #16 They need our help and guidance as each of them is going to be inevitably challenged with
00:01:05 #17 that decision about drugs.
00:01:08 #18 Now, broadcasters have played an extraordinary role in this process.
00:01:12 #19 More than any other media outlet, you have the attention of America's young people.
00:01:18 #20 Your commitment to responsible programming, airing public service announcements, editorials,
00:01:24 #21 documentaries and newscasts on the topic of drugs, it's to be commended, as are the hundreds
00:01:30 #22 of community programs you've developed to address the problem.
00:01:34 #23 But now I'd like to give you something else I think will help make your efforts and
00:01:39 #24 mine all the more effective.
00:01:42 #25 With the help of the Drug Enforcement Administration, we've developed a 17-minute video that
00:01:47 #26 talks straight to youngsters about drug abuse and why you should have as much good information
00:01:53 #27 as possible before you make the decision to use drugs.
00:01:58 #28 It's a new approach.
00:02:00 #29 No preaching, no dramatics, just a plain, common sense approach to the question of drugs.
00:02:06 #30 Now I'm sharing it with kids as I travel and speak to them and I'd like for you to
00:02:11 #31 do the same.
00:02:14 #32 I want you to take this tape that you're about to receive to the local schools and
00:02:19 #33 and PTAs, bringing local athletes and coaches and law enforcement officials to talk to the
00:02:26 #34 young people in your community about the dangers and the consequences of drugs.
00:02:32 #35 You can sponsor a high school assembly yourself.
00:02:35 #36 You can even broadcast from the event.
00:02:37 #37 Have those who are role models for our youngsters do the talking.
00:02:42 #38 Enlist the help of students and parents and local businesses.
00:02:46 #39 Make it a community project.
00:02:49 #40 You've got the reach, you've got the know-how and the technology, and most importantly, you've
00:02:55 #41 got the ear of America's youth.
00:02:58 #42 If we work together, we can get the message through.
00:03:02 #43 Let's each of us team up against drugs.
00:03:05 #44 It's your decision.
00:03:06 #45 I came to the so-home that she took me and she choked me.
00:03:11 #46 And she said, before that dust kills you, I'm going to kill you because you're my
00:03:15 #47 daughter.
00:03:16 #48 And she got a stroke behind it, you know.
00:03:18 #49 And when she got that stroke, I was really,
00:03:21 #50 I didn't know what to do, because I was so dusted.
00:03:23 #51 I just looked at her and told my stepfather to pick her up.
00:03:27 #52 You know, like, if I really didn't care,
00:03:30 #53 because I didn't feel no pain. I didn't.
00:03:32 #54 I didn't have no time for no pain.
00:03:50 #55 I'm Dave Winfield.
00:03:52 #56 As a professional athlete, I've
00:03:53 #57 seen drugs destroy the careers of gifted ball players.
00:03:57 #58 Worse, I've seen drugs wreck their lives.
00:04:01 #59 But it's not just ball players who are suffering.
00:04:03 #60 As a human being, I know the same things happen too much
00:04:07 #61 to too many people in every walk of life,
00:04:11 #62 from every level of society.
00:04:20 #63 It's because they do, because there are so many casualties
00:04:24 #64 out there, because the potency of today's drugs,
00:04:27 #65 like their availability, is up, while the cost is down,
00:04:31 #66 that each of us needs to fight drug abuse in any way
00:04:34 #67 possible.
00:04:35 #68 For me, one way is by serving as narrator for this presentation.
00:04:39 #69 Now we're going to look at drugs and their abuse from different angles.
00:04:44 #70 What we want when we're done is for you to be better prepared for that instant
00:04:48 #71 when you're offered drugs.
00:04:50 #72 We want you to say no, and we want you to know why that's the right decision.
00:05:00 #73 We are a society in which drugs play a major role.
00:05:04 #74 Many of those drugs are legal.
00:05:07 #75 Designed to repair the body, they are prescribed by doctors,
00:05:12 #76 prepared by a trained pharmacist, or so mild they can be sold over the counter.
00:05:18 #77 Other drugs are not legal, called by dozens of slang names, from speed to coke,
00:05:25 #78 from grass to crack, to smack and angel dust.
00:05:29 #79 They break down the mind and the body.
00:05:32 #80 There are a lot of people using those drugs in this country, and very few, if any,
00:05:38 #81 have solid information about the drugs they use.
00:05:41 #82 That leads to casualties, physical and emotional casualties throughout society.
00:05:47 #83 It's happened before in other cultures.
00:05:50 #84 Never in history though has substance abuse been as widespread as right now.
00:05:56 #85 and never before have so many different kinds of people been involved.
00:06:03 #86 How do we form our opinions about drugs?
00:06:05 #87 Where does our information about them come from?
00:06:09 #88 Legal drugs are heavily advertised and promoted.
00:06:13 #89 Such campaigns, while a natural aspect of competition,
00:06:17 #90 have succeeded in creating a sense that no matter what the problem,
00:06:21 #91 there's a substance that can solve it.
00:06:23 #92 Illegal drugs are promoted differently.
00:06:27 #93 Movies, records, and videos for example, often treat them casually, many times with humor.
00:06:35 #94 This translates into a pervasive feeling that drugs are somehow okay, somehow positive, harmless.
00:06:43 #95 That feeling has nothing to do with sound information or what is real.
00:06:48 #96 And then there's word of mouth.
00:06:51 #97 One person passing misinformation about drugs onto another.
00:06:55 #98 Just because someone uses doesn't mean he or she knows anything about a drug,
00:07:01 #99 except how it makes someone feel.
00:07:04 #100 You know, I'd sit there in my room drunk.
00:07:06 #101 So happy, you know, but feeling so sorry for myself.
00:07:10 #102 You know, I was wallowing my own self-pity.
00:07:13 #103 And no matter how fun that is,
00:07:16 #104 It is just an escape. I didn't want to face the fact that I wasn't happy.
00:07:28 #105 I loved feeling sorry for myself. Drinking just helps you so much.
00:07:32 #106 I'm just doing drugs because you don't have to face it.
00:07:37 #107 When I stopped, I didn't know who I was.
00:07:44 #108 I mean, it's like, it's so easy just to get high and then act high.
00:07:51 #109 That's all you have to do. You don't have to show yourself. You don't have to grow. You don't have to change.
00:07:55 #110 Because you don't grow up when you're getting high. Because you don't act like yourself. You act like the drug you're on.
00:08:02 #111 The National Institute on Drug Abuse estimates some 35 million Americans use illegal drugs.
00:08:09 #112 drugs. Few of them knew what they were putting in their bodies when they first decided to
00:08:14 #113 do drugs. Most still don't know. They don't know about the short and long-term effects
00:08:21 #114 or what's really in the drugs they take or who made the drugs that they are consuming.
00:08:27 #115 The pharmacist basic education and most of the 74 colleges of pharmacy throughout the
00:08:33 #116 United States is a five-year program leading to a bachelor's science degree in pharmacy.
00:08:39 #117 The federal government, through a number of federal agencies, Food and Drug Administration
00:08:44 #118 being one and the Drug Enforcement Administration being another, have the responsibility to
00:08:50 #119 make sure that drugs that are delivered to the pharmacies of this country and to the
00:08:55 #120 hospital pharmacies of this country are in fact not only legitimate, been produced
00:09:03 #121 legitimately, but are effective and safe.
00:09:08 #122 When somebody buys drugs on the street they're essentially buying an unknown
00:09:11 #123 chemical, an unknown compound. The purity varies widely. Some of the cuts that are
00:09:16 #124 used in illegal drugs can range from milk powder to rat poison. Exactly how
00:09:22 #125 these drugs may affect the brain, affect other parts of the body, remain to be seen.
00:09:28 #126 Unfortunately, we see many people who do in fact overdose, who get bad reactions from
00:09:32 #127 drugs, who become addicted to them in short periods of time.
00:09:36 #128 To what extent these effects are due to the impurities as compared to the drug itself,
00:09:41 #129 one can only take a guess at it present.
00:09:44 #130 One thing is clear that using illegal drugs, putting these virtually unknown compounds
00:09:49 #131 into the human body is nothing short of playing Russian roulette with your health and with
00:09:53 #132 your life.
00:09:54 #133 I wonder why youth even take drugs.
00:09:57 #134 Here we are buying something from somebody in the street that we generally don't know
00:10:02 #135 who has prepared the drug in such a manner that it is not pure.
00:10:08 #136 It contains all kinds of impurities and any taking of any drug at any given time one
00:10:14 #137 can either get an overdose or severe poison.
00:10:18 #138 that we call in medicine anaphylactoid shock, a very big name, where it is very difficult
00:10:24 #139 to revive the individual.
00:10:26 #140 So the first thing is that youth should never take anything that they don't know what it
00:10:32 #141 really is.
00:10:34 #142 And yet they buy it in the street from an unknown person who has manufactured something in
00:10:40 #143 a clandestine way, generally in a makeshift laboratory, and they're totally unpure.
00:10:46 #144 All drugs bought on the street are totally un-pure.
00:10:50 #145 Ill people treated with drugs ask questions about those drugs.
00:10:54 #146 Doctors are trained to give answers relating to risks, side effects, and potential dependency.
00:11:02 #147 But who answers questions about pot, or coke, angel dust, PCP, or crack?
00:11:10 #148 The users?
00:11:11 #149 They know what they've experienced, but not what a drug does in the human body,
00:11:16 #150 what it changes, breaks down, or causes to happen.
00:11:20 #151 If a kid were interested in cars and racing cars,
00:11:27 #152 he'd certainly want to get under the hood and understand something about
00:11:32 #153 engines and carburetion.
00:11:35 #154 One of the dangers that we have with kids that use chemicals,
00:11:40 #155 kids that use pot is that they have a sense from having used it that they understand something
00:11:48 #156 about it because it's given them a feeling. They think they understand something about
00:11:53 #157 its chemistry or something about its effect on the body. They have no idea that it
00:11:59 #158 may affect their brain, their lungs, their reproductive system, their ability to fight
00:12:05 #159 infections and most important the way they think and the way they make judgments.
00:12:15 #160 You'll hear a kid say who's used a pot.
00:12:18 #161 Well, it makes me feel more at home on the road or in a car.
00:12:24 #162 And yet the tests in laboratories show that even experienced airline pilots using marijuana
00:12:31 #163 But 24 hours later, after their drug free, cannot bring a plane in properly for a landing.
00:12:38 #164 So kids are often making a great mistake in thinking that they have sufficient information
00:12:45 #165 about a drug based on street use, street experience, or street gossip.
00:12:52 #166 The fact that drugs has reached almost every level of society has put younger and younger
00:12:57 #167 people in the position of having to decide about using drugs.
00:13:02 #168 A tough call when friends, acquaintances, and elders have decided to use.
00:13:08 #169 But whatever a person's age, that call should never be made on the basis of bad information.
00:13:15 #170 Taking drugs seriously is what it's all about because the risks are so great.
00:13:22 #171 Can't see yourself in jail?
00:13:24 #172 Okay, you don't have to be there to be a casualty.
00:13:28 #173 An athlete whose life revolves around drugs rather than ball is a casualty.
00:13:35 #174 The average person who is too busy getting high when they should have been learning
00:13:39 #175 to read and write properly is a casualty.
00:13:43 #176 Those who care more about drugs than family are casualty.
00:13:48 #177 People who drift aimlessly through life, robbed by drugs of the opportunity to become
00:13:53 #178 equipped to meet society's demands are casualties. We don't need any more casualties. Starting
00:14:01 #179 to say no to drugs is one way of keeping their numbers from increasing. Saying no means both
00:14:07 #180 standing up and defining a personal value orientation and responding intelligently
00:14:13 #181 to correct information. It's not easy, but it can be done. It has to be done.
00:14:20 #182 We've seen what happens to individuals, to societies that involve themselves in illicit drug use.
00:14:28 #183 We feel we're in a very good position to go out, to talk to the members of our communities, to talk to our youth,
00:14:35 #184 to encourage them to self-feeling of self-worth, feeling good about themselves, participating in sports,
00:14:44 #185 participating in school activities, in neighborhood activities, being proud of who they are.
00:14:51 #186 Police officers are doing this around the country, in major cities throughout the country.
00:14:57 #187 The police officers, many of whom grew up in the same environment as the individuals who now feel this hopelessness,
00:15:06 #188 are now going back into the very classrooms in which they sat and are saying,
00:15:11 #189 Hey, there can be a change in you, a change in your life without putting a foreign substance into your body.
00:15:21 #190 You can affect that change yourself by saying, yes, I can do it, and no, I do not need a foreign substance to make myself a better person.
00:15:32 #191 You have to have courage. Now nobody's going to give you courage. Nobody can say this is what courage is, this is what courage is not.
00:15:40 #192 is something that you reach down here to find.
00:15:42 #193 And that's when you say no.
00:15:44 #194 And you'll have to say no several times
00:15:46 #195 because most young people use drugs
00:15:48 #196 after they've said no four or five times.
00:15:51 #197 But it's a simple, straightforward approach.
00:15:55 #198 Say no.
00:15:56 #199 Well, one morning I woke up
00:15:59 #200 and I was laying in my bed thinking
00:16:03 #201 and I seen what my life was heading,
00:16:06 #202 which was nowhere.
00:16:09 #203 And I seen a few of my friends that I grew up with who took the other route, the square route as we were saying the street.
00:16:20 #204 And they were doing things for themselves, going to college, driving around in cars.
00:16:28 #205 Doing what was the right thing to do for a young man.
00:16:31 #206 And I had a brother who was good who I used to get high with who went to jail
00:16:41 #207 Behind drugs because he was also selling drugs and he had very bad experiences in jail. He was
00:16:48 #208 put in solitary confinement and
00:16:52 #209 You know, he had to fight all the time
00:16:55 #210 And all those things just like hit me once the emotional scene with my family the changes
00:17:01 #211 I was put my mother through
00:17:03 #212 You know the the way society was looking at me all of it just hit me at once
00:17:09 #213 You know and I and I went through a lot of emotional changes behind that too
00:17:15 #214 And I just decided that it's time to get help and it's time to do something for myself
00:17:22 #215 Drug abuse is one of society's biggest problems. It's a disease that steals potential
00:17:29 #216 destroys careers
00:17:30 #217 wrecks families and kills people and
00:17:33 #218 If not quickly, then slowly.
00:17:36 #219 But people don't have to use drugs like they have to breathe.
00:17:40 #220 There's a choice to be made.
00:17:42 #221 A decision.
00:17:43 #222 So who makes the right one?
00:17:45 #223 Who says no when there's curiosity or peer pressure
00:17:50 #224 or a hundred other excuses to say yes?
00:17:53 #225 I think people with self-discipline do.
00:17:56 #226 I think people with strong, positive self-images do.
00:18:01 #227 I think people who have a realistic idea about their goals and objectives in life, they do.
00:18:07 #228 But most of all, I think people who know there are no quick fixes in this world do.
00:18:15 #229 Most of all, I think people willing to find out about drugs and then make a decision based
00:18:20 #230 on what they found out, based on good, solid information, wind up saying no.
00:18:27 #231 Those who do say no find themselves on a steadily growing team of members who understand how
00:18:33 #232 destructive these drugs are.
00:18:35 #233 Saying no to them makes so much sense.
00:18:37 #234 It's almost crazy to mention it.
00:18:40 #235 Still it needs to be said.
00:18:41 #236 It needs to be said and mentioned and repeated until everyone's got the message.
00:18:47 #237 Understands the message and acts on the message.
00:18:50 #238 When that happens, when decisions about drugs are based on facts, most of the pushers
00:18:55 #239 will disappear. It won't happen fast, not tomorrow or the next day, but it will happen. It will
00:19:04 #240 happen if people just continue to say no. What will you do when someone offers you drugs?
00:19:30 #241 Say no to drugs. Hi, I'm Kent Herbacke of the Minnesota Twins. Remember, say no to drugs.
00:19:40 #242 Say no to drugs.
00:19:42 #243 Stop before it kills you.
00:19:44 #244 Say no to drugs.
00:19:46 #245 I'm Roy White.
00:19:47 #246 And I'm done metting the New York Inc.
00:19:49 #247 Say no to drugs.
00:19:51 #248 Be self-confident and say no to drugs.
00:19:54 #249 Just say no to drugs.
00:19:56 #250 Este es Tony Oliva, con Manasora Twins.
00:19:59 #251 Por favor, dig a note to drugs.
