First of all, I dont care how juiced up you are, you still need the ungodly hand eye coordination to connect the meat of a 2.125" barrel of bat to a baseball coming in at 75-95 miles per hour. Therefore, I do not think these men are cheaters by any means. Idiots, yes, cheaters, no. Steroids do not help you hit a baseball, plain and simple. Bonds is an asshole, and I do not like the man, but one remarkably true statement he made a month or so ago was if you have 75,000 people telling you that you suck, you must be pretty friggin good.
I grew up a Ken Griffey Jr. fan, and to be honest, if he wasn\'t so injury prone no one would even care about Barry Bonds. Griffey is 35 years old right now, with 500 career homers. By my stupid math, he missed pretty much a little over two seasons total (I could be off). 1996-2000 he hit 49,56,56,48,40. That\'s basically 50 a season. So if he missed, say, a season and a half due to injury, and hypothetically did not miss that time he would be at 650 right now, at AGE THIRTY FIVE, and that is just ridiculous. 105 home runs to go at only age 35? Barry Bonds who? Unfortunately alls anyone can do is wonder "what if", and that is truly a shame. If he stays healthy, I think he will eclipse the 700 plateau, and that is remarkable.
And on to hockey! Ah, screw it, I won\'t even go there, I can argue all night.
