Re: Barry Bonds Breaks the HR Record!

How much did steroids really help him though? Hand to eye coordination is the big key, and a good swing. Getting bigger usually means your coordination gets worse, so I don't think it could have helped a shit load. He was a 30 hr hitter back when he was little (with 30 sb) and came into the league, so it isn't anything new to him. I am not a big fan, but he did earn it.

Look at Mark Macguire now. A few years ago he was just massive, and led all of baseball in home runs. Then it came out that he used roids. He quit using in the off season, dropped 30 pounds and barely hit any home runs. Now you don't hear of him any more. Hell I am not even sure he even still plays.

As far as Barry is concerned he just ruined that title. He should have retired from baseball when he tied the record. Yeah it is a milestone. But do you honestly believe that he earned it?

IMO, nope. Bonds has no class, not a team player, and a roid user (whether he "knew" it or not).
