"The babe was on whiskey and hookers; stop pretending substance abuse wasn't always a problem in baseball. 162 games a year is a whole hell of a lot, gotta get through somehow.

Steroids or not, he hit those balls, not the roids. If he wasn't such a twat, it wouldn't be half the problem it is. 20 years from now they'll be talking about him like he cured cancer, just like Ted Williams (another King-sized twat).

(Aug 8 07, 05:06)i couldn't agree more.
even mickey mantle during the race with roger maris for 61 was into booze and hookers.
on one side of the coin bonds has one of the best swings in baseball and has an amazing talent. he's gotten big over the years but what's to say that's not from getting old, diet and hard training? guys who are getting older in the league have to work out twice as hard to keep up with the younger players.
on the other side of the coin there is the cream and the clear, which if you ask me, were more for his joints and aches and pains then they were for hitting a ball out of the park. guys i know who have taken about every steroid on the planet talk of how they make your joints feel better above all else. so... who the fuck knows.
if barry wasn't such an ass people might not be making such a big deal about it.
a-rod will be breaking his record soon anyways so who gives a shit. a-rod is the poster boy of baseball. (kinda)

roids or not. Bonds has 2540 walks (an MLB record, the next closest being, 2190). Aaron has 1402. Think about how many homeruns were taken away from Bonds in that mannor.
he was bound for 600 homers regardless before roids was in the picture. add the potential HRs that could have been in walks. its wild.
*by the way, I am a Barry Bonds fan

Why would A-Rod have perception problems????
He obviously doesn't use steroids.
- BonSeff0
a-rod is way over paid and comes up short in the clutch
- chossy0
wtf are you guys on about you've all got bad roids and you use a rod but it's overrated and bonds is a way better cream but the company that backed it was untrustwothy..........
or something to that affect

wtf @ whiskey and hookers.
drink/screw to excess and still rock at your job? you're awesome.

im not excited. The steroid thing makes the whole thing annoying.

Asked if Rodriguez used steroids, Canseco said, "Wait and see."
http://www.cbc.ca/sports/basebal…
Canseco is a joke and an ass, but he had a lot right the last time around... if he has stuff on ARod... then it just may be so.
BTW .. i was a huge fan or Rafael Palmiero for the Orioles... and see what happened there.. although he still denies it...
sad.
- morilla0
what if Aaron took roids?
yeah, he would of hit 8-850. This record means nothing until A-rod beats it. And that will happen.

seven hundred and fifty six
home runs...ACHIEVED BY CHEATINGdisgusting.

Surprise, surprise that Canseco has something to say about the best baseball player NOW, years after his book came out ... and despite the fact that A-Rod was great back then anyway.
If he had any dirt, he only had dirt on the old players he played with ... this is just even more preposterous.
- mg330
I never watch Craig Ferguson, but I did last night and in his opening he said Hank Aaron should just start doing roids NOW and get out there and defend his record.
It was hilarious.
- jondj240
bonds was on pace to be top 5 in walks before roid rumors entered the picture (2001).
over 1,500 walks by 15 seasons.
see his early stats:
http://www.baseball-reference.co…fact is, he is in the hall before and in the hall of fame after.
only player with 500hr and 500sb

Canseco is out for a quick cash grab. if he had anything on a-rod, it would have been in chapter 1 of his 1st book.
- morilla0
if the evidence comes out on Bonds, he will be hanging out with Pete Rose at the Red Lobster.
