In my opinion, it's time for Bonds to admit he took them and be a man and take his punishment.

""During the criminal investigation, evidence was obtained including positive tests for the presence of anabolic steroids and other performance enhancing substances for Bonds and other athletes," the indictment read.
I don't know if sports fans can take much more of the Barry carousel.
All I know is an old proverb -- "if you shoot at a king, you must kill him". If the feds screw up the prosecution, even Barry's detractors might conclude that Bonds has suffered enough.

Does this mean that Bonds is definitely not coming back for 2008? I'm not sure. What does everyone else think?
As long as this hangs over him, I think that Bonds is radioactive in the free agent market. In addition to his age and his health, you have the prospect of a trial hanging over one of your players. Just bad publicity all around, despite Bonds's spectacular OBP.

"The president is very disappointed to hear this," Bush spokesman Tony Fratto said. "As this case is now in the criminal justice system, we will refrain from any further specific comments about it. But clearly this is a sad day for baseball."
I think that's my favorite quote so far. It's nice to know that our esteemed leader has his finger on the pulse of the sports world.
originally I thought Mark Ecko was a jerk for the aterisk* idea, but now I have to say this, "ATERISK* TIME*******!!!!!!" Lets hope that Bonds is charged. This will Show current players and young children and fans not to mess with steroids. They are stupid and will ruin lives.*****************************************(These are aterisks.)
Yup. Let him be prosecuted just like everyone else in America would be for those charges. The one difference is that Barry's probably got enough financial wherewithall to beat or at the very least minimalize the charges.
Well just remember these are charges but he still hasn't been convicted! Innocent until PROVEN guilty and all!
Who am I kidding...he's done!
I have to think that the feds took this long to put the case together for a reason. After the O.J. case, and more recently the Specter case, I think it's becoming increasingly easy to buy your way out of nearly anything in America. Barry's definitely got the resources at his disposal, but who will his lawyers be?
Yes...good day in baseball. I'm anxious to see if Anderson finally broke or not or if they got something else on him to go forward with this. Enough of the lies already. Truth will come out.
The baseball gods have spoken!! :D:D
You'll find plenty of support for your stance...Quote:

Bonds is done. All hail the fallen king. My only regret is they didn't get to him before he fouled the home run record with a *.
Yea, I agree. His baseball career is likely done because of this.Quote:
