I'll read your link too. And for the record, I don't approve of steroids or of influencing kids to think its okay to use them b/c you won't get caught. I don't look up to Bonds as a person, but as a player. I'll quit messing with ya now! Don,

Here is a link for you to read (if you haven't already): <a href="http://blogs.britannica.com/blog/main/2007/08/barry-bonds-and-the-urban-myths-about-steroids/" rel="nofollow">"Barry Bonds and the Urban Myths about Steroids"</a> One more thing and I will be done. If steroids are of no value to athletic performance for baseball players, why is/was there such rampant use of them? I hope all of these players weren't risking their health and lives for nothing.

Did you go and at least read the article I linked to? You are welcome to butt heads with me on this issue, though. Okay Don, I was thinking of you with this post.

Just ask Tony Gwynn, Ichiro, George Brett, Ty Cobb, etc. I just find it amazing that although he has the same great swing that he has always had that his home run production saw dramatic improvement AFTER the age of 35 (which is coincidently the same time he is ACCUSED of starting to take steroids). Don't you wish that all baseball players had their greatest season at age 39? I agree with the baseball analysts who say that Bonds is the greatest baseball player of this generation, maybe all time - steroids or not. I also agree that he would have had at least 600 home runs. But you are bordering on blind allegiance to suggest that steroids WOULDN'T help him hit more home runs.

And by the way, this doesn't have to mean I think Bonds is a great role model. He's a great athlete. There's a big difference! Agreed.

He has the eye, strength and coordination to hit the home runs even without steroids. Bond’s has set the record whether legally or not, God and Bond knows.
