Name me 1 person that pointed their finger at Jordan to taking roids.

ps- Jordan didn't grow to a cartoon like figure at any time, and he did "bulk up" but it was over time, a long time, and still looked similar from his rookie year to his retirement year.
All I can say is WOW SS. Usually you provide valid arguments...but wow.

Well, he clearly looks a lot bigger in his final year versus his rookie year. And I actually have heard people say "Why doesn't anyone ever ask the question of steroids with MJ?"

And finally, it was just a question for discussion. I never said "Hey guys, I think Michael Jordan used steroids. What do you think?" Just that I know it's been speculated.

For the record, I think he bulked up because his training regiment was more "weights-intensive" in his later years, similar to Griffey's. Prior to that he was more about aerobics and cardiovascular.

That is what I've heard at least.

Are you talking about Jordan or Bonds?

Jordan.

Back in a former job of mine, I interviewed Tim Grover (his trainer) who broke down Jordan's regiment over the years and I honestly don't remember much but the gist of it was in later years he was more focused on strength rather than acrobatics

His first couple years he got beat up when he went down low, so he had to bulk up and build strength.
