On Mar 1, '99, Anabolic Steroids without a script were banned by the Federal Gov't. On Jun 7 '91, MLB issued an edict (Fay Vincent) forbidding their use under strict penalty (to include being banned from MLB). The fact that the union would not agree to testing does not mean that users after this time were not in violation of the rules of MLB. Bonds WAS using while they were banned.
