I think it's unfair to all the honest ball players who play the game with integrity. I can't see how anyone could possibly root for a cheater. The same goes for Sammy Sosa as he tired to reach the 600 home run barrier. Neither should be given any media attention. They don't deserve it.

What does this have to do with fairness? It seems like this question is bordering on the race card or false accusations towards Barry Bonds with regards to steroid use. A similar question with no sense or intelligence like this one would be more like: If A-Rod is barrelling towards home plate and Yohan Santana is blocking his progress, would it be fair for A-Rod to drop kick Yohan in the throat in order to score?
It's not about fairness. Just a HR total advancing towards a mark set by Hank Aaron. If Barry's HR total passes Hank's total, he is named the record holder. Barry Bonds plays the game fairly. I'm not sure what makes him unfair or a disgrace to the sport.

that's not a query of who needs it to ensue because of the fact, barring an unforseen occupation-ending harm, that's going to ensue, maximum in all probability interior the subsequent month. human beings constantly factor to the steroid ALLEGATIONS and declare that his records are tarnished. If, faster or later interior the destiny, effective evidence includes gentle that he did use steroids, then his records would desire to be stricken from the books (no longer marked with an *, yet deleted altogether, and he would desire to stand an entire life ban, meaning no HOF). i'm rooting for him to interrupt the checklist. Jene T...you state that Bonds would desire to furnish evidence that he did no longer take steroids. in simple terms as in a criminal trial, that's the duty of the prosecution (subsequently, MLB) to teach guilt previous a shadow of a doubt, no longer any different way around. GoBravos321...IF Bonds is shown to have used steroids, then he would desire to be banned from the sport and not inducted into the HOF, which might make what's written on his plaque a moot factor. besides the shown fact that, retaining in strategies that MLB did no longer ban using steroids till 2002, any notation that he took steroids from 1999 to 2003 may well be pointless.

I hate to admit it but technically it is fair eventhough he used enhanced drugs. Who is to tell when he started using them, When he really got hot?....no, that would cause so much drama and just wait till he does, So many people are gonna have so much to say along with the media. Their is more buzz about Bonds using steroids than breaking the record. Even if he does, people wont really care just simply because he used drugs to enhace performance and that takes away so much from the thrill of baseballs home runs.

He has admitted to using steroids but MLB allowed it so you really can't blame him. Add to that the facts that he will probably do it in fewer games than Aaron and Aaron has stated that if he had to choose a player to break his record he would choose Bonds, I would have to say that it is very fair.

It's not fair or unfair it is just flat going to happen and he will be the king for some period of time before A-Rod and others come up behind him. He is a baseball player of unbelievable talent who also probably used performance enhancing drugs. Nobody will ever be able to take his accomplishments away from him and it will be up to you and other fans to decide for themselves what to make of all of this.

He's gonna do it whether we like it or not. On the bright side, Barry's record will probably be broken by ARod, Poo Holes (Pujols), or someone else that we can only hope isn't a roider.
