the answer is simple, the fact that the record books have two black men as tops on baseball's most prized statsic the media cannot stand it. there have been players of the white persuasion who have done things far worst than steroids ( which has not been proven in barry bonds case) and yet they are honored as americas pasttime all time greats i.e. Ty Cobb, Babe Ruth which we overlook their moral flaws and who can forget Adrian Cap Anson who basically started segergating baseball.
P.s i'm not a barry bonds fan.

nicely, I have also heard about this. yet steroids were elementary between all football communities interior the 1970's and 1980's. i don't think of the Steelers were the basically accountable get at the same time, right here. In that era, three hundred-pound plus linemen were basically seen as fat adult males. NFL conditioning courses did not run 3 hundred and sixty 5 days-round as they do as we talk. So how did a 250 pound preserve be triumphant decrease back then? dishonest with 'roids. would not make it good, yet regrettably that's the way issues were. basically my view on the problem.

Boogey, I know it sounds awful, but face it, he IS the best player to ever live. He absolutely owns Ruth power wise, speed wise, and defense wise.
People hate Bonds because he is the best and has a bad attitude. It isn't because of steroids. If that was it, 1/5 of the MLB would be facing what he is (Litterally.) If lets say someone like So Taguchi was accused, do you think anyone would care? I sure as hell wouldn't. Along with 99% of fans. Bonds takes all of the heat for steroids because he is the best player in baseball history, and people don't want the all time greatest to be on steroids.
Jason Giambi, one example, we ALL know he is taking steroids by the gallon, but because he sucks now, people don't pay as much attention to him.

It's just that it's almost obvious that he took steroids. Look how thin and bonny he was during the time he was with the Pirates. And now he's the size of Ryan Howard (who also , i think, took steroids). People also don't like him because they like mister Hank Aaron and they don't want a steroid boy being a the home run champ of all time.

There is a huge amount of evidence he did steroids - sworn testimony from multiple people, hundreds of pages of written evidence, and even more circumstantial. The fact that MLB chooses to ignore the evidence does not mean that it doesn't exist.

Everyone knows he did. Just because nobody has a photograph of him taking steroids, doesnt mean its no proof.
He was a liar, a cheater, and ruined the sport of baseball for a lot of fans. Bonds and mcguire should both be erased from the history books and banned from the hall of fame.

no need to get it. they will talk **** on any great player that's not on their team. Its called Jealousy.
And to Anyone to say " BECAUSE HE IS A JERK AND HIS ATTITUDE SUCKS" Well that attitude sucks because OBVIOUSLY Ryan Howard is a nice guy and MORONS say he is on roids. Howard has ALWAYS been a big guy.
Damn haters.
EDIT:
And Photograph of him taking roids? UHM thats not how they test. a TEST I might add Bonds has NEVER failed.

i totally disagree with chang. he isnt the best player ever. so many people think that if you can hit home runs that ur so awesome. the REAL players are defensive specialists, like ozzie smith. he's (in my opinion) the best shortstop ever. yeah, he couldnt hit a homer to save his life, but he was clutch. if you needed him to do something big, he would. if his coach asked who wanted to be the pinch hitter in the bottom of the ninth with 2 outs and a guy in scoring position that if he scored they would win, the wizard of oz would step up and do it with confidance. thats all i gotta say.

Look at photos from a few years ago and STUDY the body.
Bigger frame, stronger jaw line, all the attributes of drug cheating.
For those people who think he didn't take roids, next thing you will be telling me is that they DID land on the moon in 1969 (gimme a break)

The changes in his body fuel the debate on steroids. He was great pre-steroids and then his body changed sooooooooo much.
