Has anyone read the SI article about Bonds and steriods? |
|
Or the book?
The evidence seems pretty clear to me that Bonds is a 'roid junkie. What will baseball do about it, if anything?

1. I would give him the Pete Rose treatemnt. |
|
Banned from the Hall of Fame.
I never liked Bonds, though. He was always full of himself.

All his records since 1999 should be stripped from him, too. It really puts it into perspective when you think about how Babe Ruth was overweight, an alcoholic, and STILL managed to hit 714 career HRs, and the only way anyone's coming close to him and Aaron is with steroids.
I think all of them should be banned from the Hall, including McGwire, which pains me as a Cardinal fan to say since his 1998 run was really inspirational for me (I was 13 at the time and going through a hard time in life so watching McGwire chase down Maris was pleasant escapism). Of course I was too young and naive to realize what exactly was going on. Another childhood illusion shattered, alas.

5. Yeah, I would restore Maris' 61 homeruns as the single season record |
|
It wouldn't be right any other way after what has happened.

2. All you have to do is look at him |
