With all due respect Gary, Barry Bonds is not on trial in this forum but all of us are entitled to have our opinion on whether or not he is juiced. What we think makes no difference and has no bearing on what ultimately happens. It is human nature to form opinions on people based on things we see. We are all capable of forming those opinions. It doesn't mean we have put Barry on trial and convicted him of this. I personally think he is using. You know what they say, where there is smoke, there is fire. Could I be wrong? Of course. I am not a Bonds fan but a great admirer of what he is doing regardless of if he is juiced or not. People who feel like steroids don't really help that much are quite naive. They help build muscle mass as well as improve your eyesight. Regardless, the guy is doing something nobody has ever seen so we marvel at it. Seems things are getting a little heated on this topic. You either like the guy or you don't. I respect both sides and am probably somewhat on both sides. I think if it does turn out he is juiced it is somewhat of a cloud. It is cheating. If cheating is ok maybe it is ok to cork your bat. One lst note, if I am not mistaken, steroids have been illegal in baseball for quite sometime but they just never tested for it.
