Should Barry (I don't use Steroids) go down in the record books as being the Home Run King?

Yes he should be considered the Home Run King!! There was all sorts of controversy when Hank Aaron won the title and there will be all sorts of controversy when Bonds does it too. People don't hate him because he supposedly did steroids because we know very well that many baseball players have used steroids and no one cares. People hate him because of his attitude. He's the villian that everyone loves to hate. No one wants to give him credit where credit is clearly due, which is sad. Many people are missing one of the best baseball players to ever play the game and one of the best record chases that we will ever witness. I personally don't like the guy, but I'm not asking him to come over for dinner or baby-sit so I'm enjoying every second of what's going on and enjoying every home run. I'm all for Bonds in between the lines.
My last point, he'd be stupid to be doing roids now right? He gets tested regularly right? Then how do you explain the ridiculous stats he's putting together so far this year.
My advice to everyone would be to stop finding something to hate and complain about and enjoy watching the best baseball player you may ever see.

They didn't allow Mark McGwire in the hall of fame, then Bonds shouldn't be either. He was tested positive and blamed it on pretty much everybody that ever cares about him. (Warning: Don't get a locker next to him and don't offer him anything bottles water.) But some people will call out racism if Bonds is not allow in the hall of fame.

No, most assuredly. If not for steroids, he would have 700+ more popups to the shortsop and all the homerun power of a Buddy Harrelson.

Yes, with the asterisk that he had help along the way with all the steroids he took. Thus the record is as tainted as he is!!
Chow!!

steroids cannot improve hand/eye coordination.
he deserves all the credit that is due.
if some people cannot accept this then they need to forget all about baseball because they are not fans of the game anyway

I mean until anything can be proven (although it's obvious) that he took steroids (ie positive test) then we have to let him in the books. If he does end up testing positive there definitely needs to be an asterisk next to it.

Yeah! Definitely!
Even if he did use steroids, I've always heard that they don't guarantee home runs.

of course he should, even with steroids hitting 750+ home runs is an accomplishment
