Bottom line is it's just baseball, it's a game not life and death. Lying about taking steroids to enhance your performance or whatever it is he did doesn't mean jack squat to the real world. I know it tarnishes the game but unless you have mandatory testing each week you will always have cheaters.

Why not just require you take steroids of some type??? That would be some really entertaining ****!! Bonds gets up to the plate, swings and his heart explodes out of his chest and poops out his liver simultaneously!! Hahaha!
It just doesn't really matter.

I may have not gone to "the Show", but I played a higher level of competitive softball and it makes a difference to me..... that's all.

Bonds is an arrogant *****. I used to work for a very large jewelery firm in the Houston Galleria, and Bonds came in for a $120k watch, special ordered from Switzerland and only 10 made in the World. There were just a handful of kids asking for an autograph and he shunned them away....the look on the faces of those kids....

I think he is a ********, he was when he played for pittburgh anyway. I met him when I was younger and he wouldnt sign ****. Everyone else did though. I cant imagine his superstardom made him any more of a people person.

I'd rather punish him with autographs...make him sign them and they're not worth ****.

I don't understand why everyone gets all up in arms about the smallest thing. Who gives a **** if he takes/doesn't take steroids. This is another case of people worrying about someone else instead of themselves. It doesn't matter if a persons played higher level sports or not, you don't even know half the people who take roids, supplements, or any other enhancing item. Who cares if he bought a $120k watch, he's funding that store you worked at and when you make the money he does, you can do whatever you want with it. Imagine all the other crap they sell and people buy in the world that is worthless.

Just remember people with the money make the rules, no matter how much it might **** you off.
