I don’t think anyone who knows baseball actually thinks Bonds wasn’t an excellent player throughout his career. In fact, I believe pre-roid Bonds was a much better player than the bloated one-dimensional steroid freak he has become. The point is he became obsessed with breaking home run records and with his advancing age and declining skills became a drug-induced home run machine. Is he the only one, of course not! But that doesn’t make it right. As far as others, McGwire has been shunned from the game in retirement and respect lost. Sosa, the other fake-HR “king” of the roid era, has an invisble asterisk follow him wherever he goes and toils in relative obscurity for Texas. Bonds deserves his place of shame right alongside them for the cheapening of the game and for CHEATING.
So who is the HR king?
And what drugs did Babe Ruth take?
