Steroids? Naahhhh... Couldn't be.

Bonds has hit his 754th, what do you think?
Should it be marked as *754 or S754?
Just an idea I had...I call it “Turn Your Back On Bonds”.
All those who don’t believe Roid Boy Bonds will be legitimately crowned the home run king should stand up and turn their backs to him every time he comes to bat-an ultimate sign of disrespect, and you won’t have to see #756.
Thoughts?
B*nds
Steroids? Naahhhh... Couldn't be.
Who cares. Put them all on steroids. Who wants to watch a bunch of avg. schmucks play a game anyway?
Make them all freakishly huge and maybe baseball will become just slightly more interesting than watching a snail race.
There is probably a lot more of this going on in every sport. Barry is just high profile example. Many sports accomplishments are probably tainted, we just don’t know it. Reguardless, Barry is a talented player.
I think Bonds could have made to the HOF without taking steroids. He doesn't belong in the HOF. Period.
You are right. Steroids don’t make avg. guys hit home runs. If so, Arnold and the guys in the pic above would all be on teams, earning millions, slamming them out of the park. Stupid debate, based on incredible naivete actually.
The two lawbreakers don't find Barney very persuasive.
Andy just went and told them to scram and also told them a tale about ol' Fearsome Fife
.......I can't wait to see what happens next!
I have wondered how many pitchers were on steroids that struck Bonds out, or caused him to ground out or how many homers he would have if he hadn’t been intentionally walked almost 700 times. This is not a defense of the accusations just thoughts to fuel the fire so.... FLAME AWAY.

Well, Zito gave up the 1 out double in the 1st to Uggla, so he’s still struggling a bit. Right now, this is an old, lackluster team that doesn’t hit consistently in the clutch, and is a shadow of it’s former self defensively. Every time I see Ray Durham, for example, run toward a pop fly in right center, and he misses the catch, I cringe.
I’d like to see this team start from scratch, but we have to keep attendance numbers up because the new stadium was privately financed. As for Bonds, I really don’t care now. I think he hurts this team more than he helps it at this point his career.

You're probably right, in the hand-eye hitting coordination department.
What bothers me about these "nepotism" (Barry being the son of Bobby) athletes (especially common in NASCAR which is an example although the drivers are far from being athletes), is how the sons-of-the-fathers manage to miraculously have the doors opened for them.
I tend to categorize these guys as "Dino, Dezi and Billy" kids.
Barney showed back up where the two farmers were and they high-tailed it out of there as soon as Barney started doing his usual antics, as Andy had led them to believe that these were all signs that Barney was about to go off.
Unfortunately, the two farmers stopped at the gas station where Floyd the barber was and the two farmers started talking about Fearless Fife which just cracked Floyd and the gang up...........
I would agree with the nepotisim, the pitching coach for the cardinals has two sons in mlb one on the Yankees and one on his team, Prince Fielder is another one and the Boone boys and on and on.
