Assuming we're getting 1:1, I'd bet 0-25%.

Is anyone else like me?

I'm not really sure how I feel about this. I followed his ABs and watched it live, but I am still not sure how I feel. Kind of... nothing?

Yeah, pretty much. I'm just glad he did it two days in advance of the PGA. Tomorrow can be spent celebrating/debating/etc., but come the weekend it will be in the rear view mirror and the spotlight will be fully on Tiger's ripped chest and bulging biceps. Speculation as to whether he's chemically enhanced will ensue and they'll debate if an * should be placed beside his name when he passes Nicklaus on the Majors wins list.

Steroids talk will never die. Ever.

I'd love to see the trainwreck that would happen if the media/fans started caring about steroid use in the NFL

This is actually the lead story on BBC sports website. Was not expecting that.

From their article:

"His achievement has been overshadowed by claims he has used steroids.

The left-handed Bonds has never tested positive for drug use, and denies having done so knowingly."

What a shock, foreign news site objectively reporting an American story.

CBS Sportsline's headline:

756*.

Accurate or not, I'm surprised that all the media outlets are going this route. I think its deserved, but that's a move I never thought they'd make.

Edited to remove my typo. Damn it.

Edge,

So they're already giving him credit for nine extra home runs! Maybe he's planning to start using steroids between now and then, thus the asterisk.
