Barry Bonds Issues
Ok, I am still waiting to get called out for defending Barry Bonds all this time when there is a book coming out that details about five years of his alleged drug abuse.
I am still going to stand behind my comments from the past that since the drug was not outlawed in baseball, it shouldn't reflect on his stats or records he has and will set.
Did he lie to Congress? This is still not certain. A book doesn't prove guilt, but it does make more eyes open to the case and it puts Barry back on the hot seat.
I am still confused how Jim Miller was suspended from The Chicago Bears years ago for using a drug he bought at General Nutrition Center.

Barry should have taken his own advice.

Re: Barry Bonds Issues
They should have a commercial with Spike Lee stating: "It must be the wrist-bands".

Murder is not outlawed in baseball. Does that make it ok?
Steroids without prescriptions has not been legal in the United States since 1991. That means they are illegal to have in baseball since 1991. Just because baseball rules don't outlaw it doesn't mean it isn't illegal.
That said, since baseball has turned a blind eye to this steroids until recently so they would be a little hypocritical to blank out any records that were set when they weren't enforcing the law.

Hehe, makes me laugh.
Should Fergie Jenkins be removed from The Hall of Fame?
He was caught with marijuana if I remember correctly, this is considered quite a crime. Please don't tell me that dope doesn't make you hit the ball further - It is against the laws of the USA to possess marijuana, right?
Apples and pears, don't compare them, just eat and enjoy!

In other words, the punishment is so far greater for one than the other that they are different and not comparable.
I do like your other points.

Re: Barry Bonds Issues
I said it before and I will say it again in my eyes ROGER MARIS still holds the record all other records should have an asterik.
And your wrong about baseball turning there back cuz dont forget Maris's record had an asterik next to it until I believe 1990 or something like that.
So if they could do it to maris from 1961 to 1990, they can do it to Mcgwire and Bonds.
