i dont want to hear your question is flawed or it was legal when he did it.. steroids have been illegal long before bonds* did them.. if he had nothing to hide then use the regular illegal steroids....what message is bonds* and his supporters sending to kids???? thats the question...

all of you bonds* apologists are missing the point of this question...what message are you sending to children by supporting bonds*???
by the way, what prescription did bonds* have for steroids.. give proof.

I personally think Bonds* is human waste. We only have a few more days to get someone to Nancy Kerrigan his knee...let's take up a collection.

I understand where you are coming from but I am not sure that you have all the facts. The use of steroids is not against the law since it is a prescription drug. Many everyday people have a prescription for a variety of different kinds of steroids that treat a variety of problems. Prior to 2001, when MLB implemented the drug policy, any player could get a prescription and take it legally which many did. After the implementation of the MLB drug testing policy, in 2001, they can not be used by players. Since the start of the testing Bonds has never tested positive for any of the (53) banned drugs contained within the policy. Bonds testified to a grand jury that he may have used a steroid, in a "cream" form but did not know it was a steroid. This occurred in 1999 which was two years before testing was implemented. To this point in time Bonds has never been found to have violated any portion of the MLB drug policy, or more importantly broken any laws. The only thing that we can tell our children is that many drugs are bad and should not be used, and that there is no evidence that Bonds has ever violated any laws. This is probably not what you wanted to hear but these are the facts.

I never said that he didn't do it. However alot of people are acting as if he's the only one that has done it. he has not been convicted under a court of law either. I will no longer defend Bonds if anyone can prove that an entire team in the Major Leagues is steroid & drug free. Met fans(not all) have no problem bashing Bonds but yet cheer Mota who was caught red handed. people also forget that Bonds already had Hall Of Fame numbers before this all started.

You're the person with the weakest answers here trying to bash Barry Bonds. Maybe you're bitter because you tried to hit on him and he rejected you. If you don't support Barry, that's your choice.
Who ever said that steroid use was for adults? My son had to take steroids for asthma as well as myself and I don't think I'm a bad influence to him for taking them. Barry Bonds took steroids and HGH when they were not banned or illegal in MLB. That means that MLB waited after Mark, Sammy's and Barry's single season HR chase to do anything, so who's fault was that? The commissioner and execs of MLB..... Not Barry Bonds.
There are tons of "performance enhancing" drugs out there and none are "undetectible". If that's the case, then why are all ballplayers getting busted for using cream, clear, ingested and injectible steroids?
What's it to you anyways about these drugs and it's impact towards kids? Are you calling them stupid? They probably have bigger brains than you have..... They're personable, but not gullible.....

What kind of a message will the Bonds haters send to children when his incinerated corpse is hanging from a noose?

im not supporting bonds but you are getting terms mixed up
bonds isnt a doper
doping is what runners, triathletes and cyclists do
they take out blood and re-tranfuse it into their system so that they have more cells bringing oxygen to their muscles, giving them more endurance
bonds is (or was to be P.C.) a substance abuser

I would take this opportunity to explain the amazing concept that is "innocent until proven guilty in a court of law."
Edit: Not saying he didn't do it just saying that because he hasn't been proven guilty is the reason he is still allowed to play, for better or for worse.
