Re: Why is Bonds still allowed to get after the record?
MLB is a joke. Cheaters win.
I went 1 game and I'll never go to another if they embrace bonds Besides it's 3 minutes of action crammed into 4 hours - George Carlin

Can't stand bonds. And don't support MLB AT ALL, could care less!

Re: Why is Bonds still allowed to get after the record?
Lacrosse will take over baseball in 15 years anyway... who cares. :cheeky-sm
But seriously, I don't happen to think anyone exposed of cheating / doping deserves supreme recognition. You don't win the gold in olympics, you lose the tour de france, and you certainly aren't allowed to play in professional sports. If there is no positive test, then that's that. End of discussion.... As far as all the allegations go, DMX probably says it best; "Talk is cheap mother F%#$^#".

Re: Why is Bonds still allowed to get after the record?
See, this is what I don't get. You say you need a positive test....but he ADMITTED to taking it, so admission is better than a test. The problem here is him saying he thought he was taking flaxseed oil, and not steroids...and of course, people buying it hook line and sinker.

Re: Why is Bonds still allowed to get after the record?
There's not only the double standard within the sport of baseball, but how about in sports in general. Nobody really cares about steroids in football... seriously did anyone blink an eye about Merriman getting in trouble last year? He still made the Pro Bowl, and outside of a few guys like Jason Taylor nobody really cared, especially amongst the fans.

I will absolutely agree that I think it's wrong that Baseball ignored it. They ignored it cause they almost killed baseball with all that strike crap, then when McGwire got the single season record, that rebounded the entire sport. I'm not saying it's right, but they saw a sizable increase in fan base and revenue. Hard to point out flaws when that happens. Again, 100% wrong...you shouldn't use band aids to close a gaping wounds...they tried it with interleague play as well. If we know it's wrong, shouldn't it be stopped?

You may know that Emmitt Smith is the all-time leading rusher, or Jerry Rice has the most receptions all time but off the top of your head do you know the numbers? That's what separates baseball. People make a big deal not because of the steroids so much as numbers that mean something to them suddenly are irrelevant

Re: Why is Bonds still allowed to get after the record?
in the mid to late 90's. anyone who is someone in baseball, was juicing. so you want bonds out, while the rest of the cheaters keep playing? anyone here think Roger Clemens use steroids at some point in his career?

Re: Why is Bonds still allowed to get after the record?
BTW- Yes, I have no doubt he did it.

Re: Why is Bonds still allowed to get after the record?
We didn't agree on this last time, and we won't this time.
I think the problem is with MLB and cheating is cheating. You think it's Bonds and deliberately breaking a rule that's in the rule books is not as bad as allegedly testing positive that baseball wasn't even concerned with for years anyway.
