Yeah. And he'll play in Japan next year.

I totally agree with "director......". Records that have long been broken should not be brought back under any circumstances. It would be like trying to bring the dead back to life.
In one instance I would say that Barry was wrong for harming his body if he took drugs to "enhance" (which they do not) his performance. On the other hand, the government and public are wrong for judging and accusing only one person for the crimes of many.....
The public has always had an "opinion" of Barry since he was a rookie, but if his upbringing in the high upper class SF Peninsula or having a Dad/Godfather that were baseball legends had anything to do with it, who out there wouldn't think he was going to be big headed and needed to be pampered? I met the man at work, got to know him, and he's genuine as they come! Very friendly, kind and a family man. His baseball onfield personna matters only to him and his teammates, not us and the media.....
I see the case not being as strong as the govt. thought and Barry will get off scot free. I'm not sure if all of these "experts" here have lied to a grand jury and have gone to trial for perjury..... It seems like they have done so and know everything that will happen, and believe that they can also judge Barry to fall, "because they were there......".

The truth is yes, because even though he's not my favorite person, neither are the politicians. I find it disgusting that people are still reaching verdicts based on whether they like someone or not. That's not what the judicial system is for. Lying to (or anything resulting from) a grand jury in which you were summoned to appear based on someone's dislike of you should be inadmissible.
The records are 762 and 73, degenerates! I love baseball, but I'm sick of these stupid "sacred records." They have fallen! Get over it! Or you too will fall!

Nope. Once Bonds has been proven to have lied to a grand jury, he will be sentanced of a maximum of 30 years.

It will not be a "slam dunk" for the prosecution and he could walk a free man. However, when the feds put this much effort into a case they usually don't lose.

I hope he does time and I hope he takes other players with him and Remember the Homer Record is still 61 for the season and 755 for the career. The rest of the records are all juice.

Sadly, he probably will. But only with the law. He will probably have a very hard time finding a team that will take him and his baggage. He'd be lucky to get a job our of the country.

I hope so. I know everyones pissed that he used "roids" but according to baseball it wasnt illegal. I wish people would leave him alone. We dont know who was on steroids. Maybe the way Ripken sayed healthy all those years was because he was on it as well. He did hit a bunch of HR's also and its fact "roids" help you stay healthy. Dont forget Bonds was the best before "roids" but his ego got the best of him and he did what everyone else was doing.

he'll be given a verdict of not guilty. he won't sign with a team until may or june and hopefully it will be the tigers. the only week spot in their lineup is at left. he and sheff who hate each other, but both love leyland can switch off at left and DH.
