THG will not be a FDA controlled substance until January 2005.

When the Fountain of Youth is discovered, before the FDA approves it, it will be illegal to sell or market it, not illegal to use or posess it.

Barry Bonds *

[John Lenin]

It's time to put an asterisk on all the home run records of the last decade.

*-Steroid use

[martin_fierro]

Barry Bonds told grand jury he "Unknowingly" used Steroids

Yeah, right.

[F16Fighter]

BONDS' TESTIMONY Giants star told grand jury he used clear substance, cream provided by trainer Greg Anderson, but believed they were flaxseed oil and arthritis balm.

Bonds should have merely said he thought Andersen was greasing him down with K-Y...

END-OF-STORY.

[A CA Guy]

How much could get into the system from a rub on cream?

[winodog]

What a shame. And then to insult us by saying it was flaxseed oil and tiger balm.

[mysto]

Bonds "unknowingly" used steroids... and Bill Clinton didn't inhale either...

[Texas Eagle]

It's the canned spinach I tells ya.

[Reagan is King]

Good grief, does he think anybody is going to buy that ridiculous story? Arthritis balm, lol.

[tallhappy]

He doesn't deserve an asterix. His name should be erased.

Voided. Annulled.

[LdSentinal]

Well, well, well.

It looks like Roger Maris will soon have his HR record back.

[Peace will be here soon]

"he used clear substance, cream provided by trainer Greg Anderson"

What is his definition of "used" ?

[Cableguy]

I bet Bond's trainer Anderson will make a deal, and spill all the dirt on Barry Bonds really soon.

[ConservativeStatement]

I know this may be an unpopular position to take but so be it. Sure this may be comparing apples to oranges, and it is off the topic a bit, but if we have learned one thing in sports it is: you can take drugs, you can beat up women, you can commit heinous acts, you can smack fans around, you can do just about anything and eventually be welcomed back and treated like a god but if you dare gamble..... your are treated like the plague. Pete Rose made many mistakes, got bad advice in a number of circles, but enough is enough. Not many people believed Pete Rose but the fans have displayed their admiration of the man's accomplishments: MLB -- put Pete Rose in the Hall.

[ApesForEvolution]

...and I didn't inhale...

[byteback]

Interesting to see Barry's testimony. Since it was all under oath he's either clean or should face prosecution.

[TheErnFormerlyKnownAsBig]

BONDS' TESTIMONY Giants star told grand jury he used clear substance, cream provided by trainer Greg Anderson, but believed they were flaxseed oil and arthritis balm

I have two comments regarding this statement.

First, this is why I use the Golden Flaxseed. I don't like the diameter of my skull to go up a 1/4 inch from that regular stuff the labs are handing out.

Secondly,

"Who told you to use a balm?! Did I tell you to use a damn balm?"

[sonsofliberty2000]

First Professional wrestling now baseball! Next you'll tell me Hulk Hogan and Macho Man used steroids.

There will always be a DARK CLOUD over the records of Barry Bonds. There are two things that can NOT be ignored. First, we all know wine gets better with age, but HUMAN BEINGS, as a rule don't, at least NOT without "HELP". Looking at his tremendous accomplishments POST 36 years of age, when most athletes are on their way OUT, is truly amazing.

Second the VERY FACT that BB had NEVER hit 50 home runs in a single season, ONLY to hit 73 in 01, and for the first 15 years of his career to have around a 550 slugging percentage only to average .805 for the past 4 years, post 36 years of age only deepens that CLOUD.

Who is Barry Bonds? The excerpt doesn't say.
