Imagine if Aaron could have pumped up with steroids in his final 5 years of playing.
Seriously, no one I know gives a crap about Bonds breaking this record. It will forever be cheating to true fans of the sport.
I suspect that if Bonds were "clean" and whether he was a jerk or not, the vast majority of whites would wish him good luck and success.
OTOH, if it were a white player seeking the record that was held by a black man, clean or not, jerk or not, the majority of blacks would wish for failure.
It's an ugly reality.
