prewarsportsWhat Ben Johnson did in the 1988 Olympics was amazing. He smashed the record for the 100 meter dash that still has not been equalled and he was a far superior athlete to all those around him. How come nobody is running around making justifications for him and signing his praises? Because he was a cheater. I do not care what an athlete is doing, if they are taking steroids it doesn't matter! I dont care about Bond's personality. There is no doubt he took steroids, to think otherwise would be like buying a PRO graded card that is 1/2 inch short all the way around but wanting it to be unaltered so badly that you just buy it.
I will give Bonds his due credit the day they give Ben Johnon his olympic medals back. Oh ya, and the guy cant throw out a crippled old man from medium shortstop range with a ticket to the World Series on the line. If he had been on steroids then, he might also have a world series ring. His walk total might have something to do with the 97 carat Diamond in his ear that faces the pitchers. You cant look directly at Barry on a sunny day or the reflection will leave you blinded for a good 2-3 minutes.
