BONDS ON ROIDS: NO WAY!
The San Francisco chronicle reported that BARRY BONDS admitted to taking steroids, but says that he didn't know he was taking them. Does anybody believe this?

First of all, this seems to be the most popular confession in the world today. "I did it, but I didn't know I was doing it". Do people really buy this?

Back to the main point...Does Barry Bonds really expect people to believe that of all people, he would put something into his body and not know what it is? This guy is a work-out fiend (aside from being a 'roid fiend), there is no way he didn't know that he was taking steroids.

There are several questions now. First, where does baseball go from here? I know what baseball should do, but I know they won't do it. They should implement a strong steroid policy, but they won't. Why won't they? Because fans don't care. If they thought for a second that they would lose money because of all of the steroid controversies they would've done something all ready. The average fan wants to see a bunch of dudes with cartoonish heads hitting bombs 600 feet. He could inject himself in the ondeck circle and most people wouldn't care. Look at all of what baseball has been through, obviously the fans keep coming back.

It's been obvious to a lot of us that Bonds has been 'roiding up for years. Think about it, he's put on 35lbs of muscle at the age of about 35, had his hat size increase twice, and is frequently angry (aka 'roid rage).

What happens to Bonds' records? I don't care if he ends up with 900 homeruns, HANK AARON is the all-time Homerun King. Bonds never hit more than 50 homeruns until the age of 35. Hank Aaron's record is the most hallowed record in baseball and maybe all of sports.

This whole thing is absolutely sickening and I don't feel like writing about it anymore right now. The whole "offensive explosion" of the 1990s and into the 2000s was drug induced. It was fake. The last 15-20 years are almost meaningless in a sense. Who knows who was juicing, who knows who wasn't?

And to those who say 'steroids don't make a big difference', think of it this way. In terms of bat-speed, how many seconds are the difference between getting jammed and grounding out to short or hitting a 450 foot homerun? Probably about 0.05 seconds. You're telling me that benching 400lbs instead of 250 isn't going to make a difference? Without steroids JASON GIAMBI would probably be hitting .230 in AAA like his brother JEREMY. Jeremy would probably be pumping gas outside of Las Vegas somewhere. Steroids aren't going to make a guy off the street hit 40 homeruns in the big leagues, I get that. What I'm saying is that it can make a 40 homerun guy hit, say 73 homeruns one year. That's my point.
