I don't see why anyone or any baseball fan in this world should respect Baroid Bonds. Also, I've heard many saying he never used steroids. Are you kidding? I got three facts to prove that he used steroids.
1) His Hat Size explains it all. Also just look at his whole shape now compared to 1998 or before. See what steroids does to you?
2) Even the person who distributed the steroids to him admitted that Bonds clearly used it.
3) Barry Bonds hit one HR per 16.1 AB prior to 1998. From 1999-2004, he hit one HR per 8.2 AB, and that's after his 35 years old birthday. Come on, this is not normal.
Bonds is a CHEATER. Never should be a hall of famer. Considering that he has the syptoms of steriod use(the bad knees, the way he built up in a short time, etc.) and that he REFUSES to take a drug test and dropped on the the MLBPA union so he wouldnt have to take one, that is a big reason why I have to say Yes, he is a cheater. Why should people favor him and be all excited for home runs?

I have to respect him because I have faced 90 plus mph fastballs and regardless if I were juiced up or not they're not easy to hit. There is such a thing in baseball as hand/eye coordination and you can't fake that.Many of todays players enjoy benefits that were not around in the earlier years.There are all kinds of technology that show a players swing a pitchers wind up and so forth. These images are studied and used for correction etc.Does this mean that if a pitcher throws a no hitter that he shouldn't be recognized in the same class as cy young? I'm not saying using if he was using steroids is right but if it were just the steroids I would like to see how many pro wrestlers and bodybuilders can hit that many home runs, Since we're pointing fingers why didn't mark maguire,giambi and the rest of the"roid crew catch Aaron? I guess I'm just saying there is more to hitting that many home runs than brute strength. Not let him in the Hall of Fame? That's kinda harsh. I don't know how well off you are financially but what would you do with that steroid record breakin ball if you got it?

Of course, his records SHOULD be removed, but when you think about it, it would be impossible. Think about how many times Bonds hit a homerun to help the Giants win a game. Do you honestly believe that those games should be counted as lossed for the Giants? Should their 2002 NL pennant be erased because of Bonds. Besides, should all players ever accused of steroids be forgotten? Of course I don't like Barry Bonds and I do believe that his home runs SHOULD NOT count. But, since that's not possible, I think the only fair thing to do would be to ban him from the MLB and never make him eligible to go into the Hall of Fame.

Barry Bonds deserves to be in the Hall of Fame steroids or not. He established a Hall of Fame career before the 1998 season. He led the majors in slugging % in '90, '92, '93, extra base hits in '92, '93, and on base % in '92. He led the NL in runs in '92, and RBIs in '92. He has been voted into the All Star Game 13 times, 8 of them before 1999. He is a seven-time Natinol League MVP. And he has 8 Gold Gloves wich steroids do not help you get. Steroids or not he is a first ballot Hall of Famer and to not respect him as a baseball player is crazy

1. Nothing about hat size. Only water retention and fat buildup. Uneducated people don't know that, so they use that falsehood to pick on Barry.
2. What's to admit? Of course, he took HGH and steroids but these were LEGAL when he and others took them. MLB and the commish did not ban them or make them illegal at that time.
3. What's going on with the so-called scientific data? Who cares how old you are when you start performing at a higher than normal rate? Define normal, when you have 60+ year old people running 26.5 mile marathons and finishing them.....
4. Define how Barry cheated when those drugs were not illegal or banned. Prove that he does not belong in the HOF and prove that steroids/HGH will allow you to hit HR's or throw no-hitters..... Prove that he refused to take a drug test. Only Sammy Sosa refused to provide blood or urine.....
We're excited for him because we're true to baseball and honor baseball more than fake, bandwagon fans that try to spoil the sport for those that really know about it.

You have an opinion -- and that's fine -- but then back it up with such wrong and/or misinterpreted information that it's not worth a response.
