i think barry is getting screwed..He is not getting put on trial for purgery..yeah he might have used steroids but that is over and now they are trying again to get him in more trouble.i think they are just using him as a example.if they went into a gym and found some random shooting up with roids he would be put on trial and maybe get a hefty fine and some rehab but no jail time.but now since barry is this big star he has to get twice as bad and it is noti fair at all..and just for the record i am not a giants fan or a barry bonds fan at all..what do you think abotu all of it?

You said it, they're making an example of him and I think they should. He's breaking long standing records set by legit athletes and it's not fair. It's a disgrace to the sport. Steroids aren't a problem in every day society but in professional sports it's cheating.

I don't think that you really understand the situation. He is NOT getting put on trial for taking steroids. He is getting put on trial for lying to a grand jury in the BALCO case. Had he told the truth to the grand jury like Jason Giambi did Bonds would not be at risk of going to jail.

True but what I meant by that is they're not commonly known to ruin people's life like other drugs. If they weren't a problem in sports you wouldn't hear much about them.

im so sick of hearing about barry bonds. the idea of giving him a show pisses me off even more, i dont care about your life barry. on the commercial he acts like yea im gonna give it to you real straight from the horses mouth. what is he really goin to say about the steroid issue that he hasnt said before? oh you didnt do them barry? good thing i watched your show and wasted my time in hopes of actually hearing you tell the truth.

i hate baseball, but i like going to baseball games and getting drunk.

but more to the point, i hate baseball, theres no action, its boring, the players are pussies and depending on their position dont have to be athletic at all, plus its what boys do during mens lacrosse season. i could go on, but id rather not waste the effort.
