how does random author seem to know all this stuff that Bonds vehemently denies?

I'm wondering about the validity of this.

I think if it is true, MLB should fire him out of the league.

They followed this story for years and are saying that the Government has ceized all of this stuff. They'd be risking their entire acreers if it weren't true, so most people would believe them. That, and Bonds is an obvious juicer.

They gathered this information the same way any writer would. They interviewd people, looked at public records from the BALCO hearings, etc. That said this story is not news to me. I have believed Bonds to be a juicer for years now.

Nobody other than the most naive of the Giants' fans believes he's played drug-free, and I'm glad to see that his "assumed" indiscretions will soon become "public record" indiscretions. No call from the Hall, no heartfelt send-off from the league or his organization...nothing. Nobody deserves "nothing" more than Barry... He killed the Padres so much for sooooo long with all that "go get 'em" juice pumping through his veins that I hope they suddenly pass a bizarre new reactionary law that makes Bonds' steroid crimes punishable by public castration. On pay-per-view...

[Brian Fein]

I was one of those that held the candle.  In this country its innocent until proven guilty.  Most people were looking at his 1986 Topps Traded rookie card and saying "damn, look how big he got!" followed by "he MuST be juicing..."

I don't follow that logic.  I tend to think that until he tests positive, you can't say he did.  People can pack on that muscle across 20 years of hitting the gym, and if I'm a power slugger who wants to reach greatness, you best believe I'm lifting daily.

It is possible to pack on muscle without juice.  I don't consider myself naive.  I'm disappointed to find out that the glimmer of hope I held out is proven to be wrong....

In America, you are innocent until proven guilty by the COURTS. This is a matter of public opinion and he is guilty as sin.

I don't give a crap about OPINION.

Its my OPINION that everyone's pissed off about suspicion.  You can't comdemn a guy based on circumstance or suspicion.

As a fan, sure you can. I mean, Bud Selig can't suspend a guy based on his opinion or circumstantial evidence, but fans can boo him based on what they feel, regardless of fact.

The Hall of Fame is also public opinion and while Bonds will get in no matter what, guys like Raffy and McGwire may have to buy a ticket to get in.

FTR, Bonds actually admitted steroid use when he says he thought the clear was flaxseed oil. Everything else is circumstantial, but there is so much of it no one would feel bad calling him a user.

This guy's gonna end up like Jim Bouton after he authored Ball Four

[Pats2006]

Good story!

If you were slow to comply or if you tried to explain why it wasn't such a good idea, Bonds would get right up in your face, snarling, calling you a "punk bitch," repeating what he wanted and saying, "Did I f------ stutter?" You had to suck it up and take the abuse and the humiliation -- everyone did.

Thats funny.

Can you condemn him on the fact that his trainer had calendars detailing Bond's cycles?

[Brian Fein]

I guess i'm just disappointed that a guy that kids can look up to proves to be a bitch-ass cheater scumbag.

I can't believe that in his mind, its OK to ruin history...

I knew OJ was innocent also. I agree.

The guy is human. Not everyone lives by the same moral standards. I have said it before and will continue to say so, just because someone is an athlete there is no reason to put them on pedastools and idolize them.
