who cares if he is doing drugs. drugs don't help you make contact with the ball. you guys are idiots.

I can make contact with the ball every hit and the ball is not going to go anywhere so....

yes bonds has talent that allows him to be a good player but the roids help him knock it out of the park instead of hitting fly balls. Proof he used roids in the past: When he hit his 73 homers in a season he had never even hit 50 in one season and hasn't since. Smells fishy, but also his cap size grew a size and a half in one year at the age of 38. Now that does not happen unless you are using. End of story now let's get back to talking about running.

not at 95 miles an hour you can't

Bonds hitting homeruns has more to do with him being older and having patiance at the plate. Furthermore as he got older he hit the gym more, so instead of just getting fatter as his metabolism slowed down he put on bulk, look at Tony Gywnn, he got and fat because he did not workout 2 times a day in the off season. And getting older does not mean you get worse, look at clemens since he is pitching so well does that mean that he is on roids i don't think so. Bonds hitting homeruns has more to do with his swing and his choice of pitches. He has one of the best swings in baseball and that has more to do with getting balls out of the park than does roids. Shawn Green is a good example of this he is no where near built like bonds but he can still hit home runs with authority, Ruth wwas fat and slow but had a good swing and aaron was fairly skinny and had a good swing. Its just a shame that Bonds get so much shit for not being personable nowhere does it say he has to be. Its love or hate but hate because you don't like don't slander him cause you want an excuse for him being one of the greatest ever to play the game, just enjoy watching what we are all blessed with being able to see. Its not everyday Hammerin is being chased for his title.

Do some research on all the crap that's been happening with BALCO lately. You might get some insight as to why everyone is accusing Bond's of using steroids.

What is going on with BALCO? There was a ton of info coming out almost every day before the Olympic trials, and since it has been as quiet as a church on the BALCO front. Are the Feds keeping a tighter lid on things or are they going to bow down to yet another prima dona fake god that is worshipped by the lemmings known as the American public?

MLB fans don't care that Bonds was/is on drugs. All they want is to preserve their traditions, see people hit homers, and have heros in their sport. No one cares about whether the game is fair or not. There is no justice in the MLB (exept David Justice) and the fans like it fine that way.

I saw a stat once that I can't quote from memory, but basically Bonds only started hitting homers over 400 feet after the year 2000. Sorry, but old men don't do that no matter how many times you watch Mr. 3000.

Also, the BALCO story says it all. There is no positive test (the MLB tests are a joke anyway) but there is tons of other evidence that Bonds' trainer was buddy-buddy with Balco.

buddy buddy huh? LAnce Armstrong was buddy buddy with a doctor directly connected to epo and yet nobody jumped on him aside from the french media. Why do we hold a double standard? Because he is nice and friendly towards his fans? and for the guy who said bonds only 73 once and has never hit over fifty, if ruth or aaron was pitched to the way that bonds is today they would not have had those big consistent years. He has been walked over 200 times to date this season, including intentional and unitentional/intentional. Face it if they pitched to bonds the way they did before he hit 73 and the year he did then he would be passing aaron this year. And the cap size, show me your proof.

If they actually pitched to Bonds, he'd have over 750 homers by now. Neither Ruth nor Aaron nor anyone else was treated even vaguely like this by pitchers. They are anxious to avoid confrontation, to say the least. His walks are pushing his on base average up to levels no one's ever approached before.

we need a little commentary from running's most prolific Giants fan, Mr Chris Phipps...ya out there??

hootie

"Regina" Bonds is a cheat. If she breaks the HR record, Henry should drive her head about 480 ft down the left field line (foul). In fact, the last three MLB home run heroes (Regina, Sosa, and McGuire) have ALL been proven to be cheats!

Guess I used to be a baseball fan. Not no mo!

Unfortunately, MLB basically has no testing program, so all MLB players must be legit.

I jumped on him for not doing all that he could to fight off his detractors. He should offer to freeze his piss like Paula. No double standard from me- maybe from others though.

Uh, they have to be allowed to test him. Thanks to the goddamn union they can't do it ya ass monkey.

And pray tell me...what has this to do wwith track and field? Perhaps we should worry more about cleaning our house before we tallk about somebody else's!

Why was my post deleted from this thread? Perhaps I hit a nerve with the fact I pointed out ?

Yet you have interest in T&F?

Oh, I'm sorry i guess he's only posd. the 6 tests he's had. He needs 7 to fail. What a f***ing joke.
