Tuesday: Bonds does, and that's everybody he's concerned about. What's amazing is the light this shines on the greatness of Hank Aaron. Even without steroids, Bonds was a great player. But Hank was in a class by himself.

The Usurper: This is an interesting story on the subject

Jim Dandy: That's an interesting article and there's little to argue from a numbers perspective. Both are giants of the game. But because baseball is a numbers game, Bonds' steroid use is critical. And his power numbers (as well as his head, shoe size & weight) inflated dramatically in his later years, when a normal player is past his prime. I have to wonder why he's playing, and why we're discussing these things & articles are being written what, in a better world, would not be taking place at all. For me, like so many other things in our society, baseball has been corrupted & now holds little interest for me. I keep up with Maddux. lol

The Usurper: I find it hard to even look at Bonds,and not for cosmetic reasons

Jim Dandy: I feel the same way.
