Did Barry Bonds Take Steroids?

This question is redundent. They're aren't any hard facts saying he did. But you had have been hiding in a closet for the last 7 years to not say he bulked up, and so on and so forth. However it's speculation. I presume he did, along with the rest of the steroid squad i.e, Sosa, McGuire, Palmero, Brady Anderson(where is he), Luis Gonzalez.

Bonds told a U.S. grand jury that he used undetectable steroids known as "the cream" and "the clear," which he received from personal trainer Greg Anderson during the 2003 season.

Yes to both McGwire and Bonds.  Nobody has definitively proven they broke any rules of baseball.  Keep in mind that in the speculation of when McGwire took steroids it was not a banned substance.  Canseco?  I don't think his numbers were there.  He was great in the 80's and very early in the 90's but he did not have a HOF career.  He did however have a very good career.

issue is     can Bonds do it without steroids?

I have to say that I agree with the allegations that he did use steroids. ESPN the Magazine just had a story about him with a picture of him in '93 and one of him recently. Same pose (stretching before going to bat with the bat over his head). He didn't even look like the same person. However, I'm still undecided on whether or not he was aware that he was using steroids. But, it seems to me that'd be kind of hard not to realize that you're getting that much bigger that fast. On the other hand, you still have to have some talent and hand-eye coordination to make contact with the ball. So, it's not like steroids were the only thing that have propelled him to third all-time in HRs. There's talent there, too. But, I love the Giants and I love watching Barry play. I'm glad he's so close to the HR second place record and I hope he breaks Ruth's second place record and comes back again next year. His agent said that he expects him to return next year, just not sure for what team...be a DH in the AL or continue to play for the Giants? I think everyone should just lay off him, though, and let the man play baseball...for goodness sakes' it's just a sport...and, Ruth and Mantle, etc. weren't all exactly saints either...

Sadly enough. I think the Pistons know Barry Bonds and take steroids. The Cavs need to learn how to rebound the basketball.

I feel that the whole MLB is tainted and that it doesn't matter anymore what Barry does because steroids are everywhere. Major League Baseball is "trying" to fix the problem while all they are doing is just looking the other way while a player is juicing.\n\nPlayers are probably juicing right now as we speak without any consequences because Major League Baseball doesn't care. The MLB is a business. People come to watch, buy merchandise (jerseys), and want to see the players that can hit the long ball. MLB turns the other cheek to players that do steroids because the ones that are hitting the long ball use them.\n\nSteroids is tarnishing the history of the game, but is what will keep Major League Baseball alive in the future. People today love controversy and the long ball (both can be acquired by steroid use.) If Bonds starts hitting home runs again I'm sure people won't hate him as much as they do now.

Without steroids, Barry Bonds would have made the hall of fame. He's that good of a ball player. Without steroids, however, he wouldn't have come close to Aaron's Home Run record. Does he deserve to be the Home Run king? No. Will he be? Yes. Sad to say, the deed is done, he took steroids, and he will break the record next year. This whole fiasco makes the Pete Rose lifetime ban from baseball a big joke.

Bonds is 41 away from Aaron. On his current pace Bonds would need at least three years to make Aaron's mark. His health is questionable and age is getting the best of him. Not to mention he isn't taking steroids very likely now! So I would say no but it is possible and no I hope he doesn't. He and others like him who have used these drugs have tarnished the great game. Babe's only drug was a cigar and bottle of JD!!

Absolutely. Baseball has never proven beyond the shadow of a doubt that Bonds has knowingly taken any performance-enhancing drugs. Yes, most signs point to the fact that he has, but he has never failed a drug test.\n\nUnfortunately for the sport and for the fans, baseball and the players association didn't implement a careful, thorough drug testing and penalty process until very recently. So lots of records over the past decade or so that may or may not be tainted with drug use will always have an implied asterisk next to them.\n\nAlso, the truth is that cheating has been a part of the game since the beginning. Corked bats, scuffed balls, amphetamine use, etc. have always been around and fans and baseball have looked the other way.

No, he is not.  Did you see how poorly he did this season when they were testing for steroids.  I think that he stopped using them this season so he would not get in trouble.  If you use steroids, why do you deserve to be on the all time homerun list? Plus, there's the whole cork in the bat incident.  He had to cheat to get his homeruns.

Considering he's played with the O's, Diamondbacks and Royals lately I'd say most of those names come from those rosters. Palmiero is one that jumps up right away. Curt Schilling is a possibility even though he was gone before Grimsley got to Arizona. Many of the players are likely to be journeymen like himself. However there may be some stars. Grimsley was teamates with players like Beltran and Sweeney.  Sidney Ponson might be another name to pop up.  Barry Bonds apparently has been linked to HG drugs before and it appeared the feds wanted Grimsley to get Bonds for them. So there is a strong chance that Bonds a known steroids user will be scooped up in this. Other steroid users like Sosa and Giambi might be on the list as well. In fact I'd be really surprised if Sosa doesn't turn up in this scandal. He used corked bats, steroids and every other method of cheating, why not the HG formulas?

If you read Game Of Shadows, you'll see that Bonds started using steroids in '99 because he was jealous of McGwire and mad that McGwire had taken his spotlight. Bonds had such a giant ego, (no pun intended), that he wanted to make sure that everyone would talk about him, no matter what he had to do.

Steroids seem to be the easy way out. Working out at the gym is hard work, and some players are so lazy, they want to do it the easy way. Barry Bonds--and probably plenty of other athletes--could have been respected, great athletes if they had been willing to work. But they just took steroids. Athletes like Barry Bonds, Mark Mcquire (sp?), Rafael Palmiero--they all broke huge records. People celebrated--until they found out the horrible truth. It caused so much confusion in baseball. What to do with them? Did they have to put asterisks by all the records? (715*\n*used steroids)\nI mean, that just gives kids bad ideas. Steroids\na) RECK your body\n2) injure your chances of being a respected athlete\nd) are just plain cheap\nMost of those athletes are liars, too! They say that they didn't intentionally take steroids. That's why I respect Jason Giambi--he admitted his mistake.\nI saw a story on the news about a high school football player who died. He had been taking steroids and they recked his body.
