Topic: should barry bonds be recognized as a legit hr record holder?

[fish]

 It has been suggested he had performance enhancing drugs in his system.He may even be indicted. Should his records stand?

 Mark Mcguires records should be pulled. He admitted after he retired he used performance enhancing drugs. Roger Maris' record should still stand. Bonds said he used a substance called"clear" that he said was flaxseed.Bull!

I'm not a fan of baseball but I have never liked Barry Bonds since he left the Pirates a while back.  I think he is using enhancing drugs, my gosh when he played for the Pirates he had a nice body and was kinda good looking now he looks like a wrestler instead of a baseball player and we know now after what that wrestler did that a lot of the wrestling world is on those drugs.  NO NO NO he should not even be allowed to play let alone be setting records or being installed in the hall of fame.  And he is so arrogant about it, yuk he makes me sick

Mark McGwire used a substance called androstenedione, which was a perfectly legal substance to use.  Also remember that when Mark was a rookie he hit 49 homeruns.  Even if steriods were a factor, how do steriods help you hit a ball?  I thought that it took hand/eye coordination in order to hit a baseball?

i thought steroids just helped them hit it farther as in "home runs" which is what he is trying to break the record for

if you don't have the muscle, you won't hit the ball very far.

but isn't that the point of steroids they make your muscles much bigger than normal to enhance your performance
