Several of them were probably on steroids, so you can't really count them all.

Congratulations to him.

While many people will cry about the steroids and all, we can tell that the times are changing. Most athletes take some form of supplements to go with their workout plans, where do we draw the line as to what is allowed and not allowed when it comes time to judge a player?

Also, the pitcher that threw 755 previously tested positive for steroids in the minor leagues.

generally the ones that are regulated by federal or state controls or have not been cleared as safe for human usage by the FDA should probably not be allowed also fuck barry bonds peace out

Times were different back then than they are now. Hank Aaron, only needed to face one pitcher in his career, who eventually got tired in the last innings, where he hit his home runs. Barry Bonds faces a roundabout of pitchers called starters, reliefs, and closers, all in separate parts of the games - and who's saying the pitchers themselves don't take steroids? Do we actually have proof that he's taken steroids, or are we simply doing like MadRoll says and saying "Barry Bonds is a shithead, therefore he took steroids and cheated."

Who gives a damn if he took steroids? Just because you take steroids doesn't mean you can hit a ball with a bat worth a shit, it takes at least SOME amount of skill. I'm sure there's plenty of dudes in the majors that take steroids that haven't even hit ONE home run their whole career.

no "supplements", and no mega hype to bump down the predecessor.

nothing but straight up skill and love of the game. (multi-million dollar sellouts suck)

Back then we didn't have government regulations on sports.

I'm hoping Bonds has that pretty little record stripped from him when they find out he's been corking bats and doing tons of steroids.

I'd take just steroids, but bat corking would be funny as well... seeing as he is quite the muscular guy, and sure as hell doesn't need the extra help.

probably but that doesn't change the fact that he never would have come close if he weren't juicing

look at the way his stats dropped off after he was outed and it becomes pretty clear that he would have peaked at less than 650 by the time he finally retired

What Bonds told BALCO grand jury
Barry Bonds - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
SI.com - MLB - Shadows reveals truth behind Barry Bonds' steroid use - Tuesday March 7, 2006 4:49PM

is that sufficient? the man has admitted himself to a grand jury that he "unknowingly" took drugs that he was given by greg anderson
