| Adam hit the nail on the head. If this was someone like David Ortiz, surrounded in steroid controvercy and breaking the HR record, more people would be saying Prove it... Prove Papi is taking Roids. Because Papi is a nice guy and people like him. Bonds is a retard, everyone is just waiting for him to get busted, it will be a worldwide celebration the day he goes down. People WANT to see it. |

And that Bonds was connected to BALCO, which went down with a federal investigation. And that Bonds's trainer is in jail and won't clear Bonds's name to get out of prison. And that George Mitchell's investigation is partly on Bonds's trail. And that Bonds has a book out on him by two guys who write in detail of when and how he gained the weight and why he chose to do it right after Big Mac and Sosa did. And that Bonds has never sued the just said publication for defamation if they did indeed lie about his actions. And that Bonds's performance has hit a startling peak after his 35th birthday when 100% of ballplayers either decline or show some signs of age.
But yeah, other than that, and Bonds being a pr!ck, people are against him instead of an Ortiz or an A-Rod. |

This is actually a ripped off post from the Lounge, but it was interesting enough I thought I'd bring it over. Even as a Barry hater I think a lot of this is pretty far fetched though

Crazy, Crazy, Crazy Bonds Rumors
This stuff is insane! Through Greg Anderson's cell mate, here are some of the juicier parts of a SF Weekly article:
QUOTE
• Desperate to combat the testicular shrinkage that can occur with steroids use, Bonds injected human growth hormone directly into his genitals during the 2002 playoffs — with disastrous results for both him and the Giants.
• In early 2003, owing to the performance-enhancing drugs coursing through his body, Bonds suddenly began lactating, forcing doctors to excise his mammary glands.
• Wary of taking steroids since the BALCO flap broke, Bonds, intent on maintaining his edge, now supplements his diet with "Barry's brew," a homemade high-energy drink made of elk semen that has yielded its own troubling side effects.
QUOTE
Yet unlike the book's somber treatment of such topics, Leftwich claims Anderson fondly reminisced about using an emery board to sand down his prized client's back acne. Leftwich recalls Anderson saying, "One time I told Barry I was gonna sell a snuff tin of his skin flakes on eBay. He got the biggest f***ng grin on his face and said, 'Be sure I get my cut of the profits.'"
QUOTE
But his smile would go south in 2001 during spring training. Rapid skull growth, another indicator of heavy steroids use, had placed undue strain on the slugger's neck, resulting in hairline fractures in three upper vertebrae. According to Leftwich, Anderson disclosed that, as a remedy, doctors implanted a small titanium brace at the base of Bonds' skull to keep his abnormally large head upright. The procedure was an unqualified success: He hit 73 home runs that season, breaking McGwire's record by three.
I'm speechless. Takes a serious sense of entitlement and egotism to do this sort of thing to your body just because you think others are getting the attention you deserve!!! |

| Yeah I heard about this last week. I think most if not all is far fetched. Besides, Anderson is in jail because he would not talk and now you think he is going to be telling all to a cell mate? As much as I hate Barry there is no way that this stuff is true. |
