OK< more victimhood from professional baseball.

"You all wanted me to jump. I jumped. You all wanted it to be over, and it's over. I hope you're all happy." Barry Bonds whining to the press as he tells them he will miss next season because of knee surgery. Puleeeze

This is where it gets interesting. He denied knowingly taking steroids to a grand jury. His ex-mistress has testified that he admitted to her that he was taking steroids. Can we say "perjury."

Barry can slug 800 homers and Hank Aaron will still be the all-time HR king to me.

Well his ex-mistress didn't come out with the facts until Barry told her goodbye and left her with a mortgage on a house to finish paying off. I wouldn't put much stock in the word of a scorned whore.

Why? He's a grown, adult man in a supposedly free country; why do you care what he does with his own body?

Do all you moaning about steroid use also feel that Carl Lewis should return all his gold medals now that we know he tested positive for steroid use in the past ?

How is getting away with it ok, but not if you own up to it ?

Wow!

What a prolific lack of imagination.

Do you really think that when millions of dollars are at stake, EVERY MOTHERS SON doesn't do drugs? And/or screw the coaches daughter?

Wow. That is a real lack of imagination.

Does anyone think that the average NFL lineman has gone from 288 lbs to 342 lbs between 1970 and today without steroids?

That is more than ten thousand human athletes. In one sport.

I'm really sure that the other millionaire athletes don't do drugs. Snork.

It's not about what he does with his own body. It's about whether baseball should let a cheat'n bastard like Bonds sit higher in the record books than real legends like Hank Aaron or Babe Ruth.

Self-righteous tripe; if he beats their records he beats their records. I could care less what he did with his own body; Babe Ruth consumed tons of illegal substances (booze during prohibition) and no one cared. Or should the Bambino's records be taken away also?
