Default Re: Bonds Responds

[ QUOTE ]
For the record, I think that Bonds is the Greatest of All Time, as well as a cheater, but I really don't care that he cheated, since it was IMO known and condoned by the players, the union, and ownership. So I guess I'm kind of in the middle on this whole topic.

Pretty spot on with my thoughts. If he is not the GOAT he is pretty damn close. My personal opinion is that did use PED's and that was cheating, even if it was not explicitly against the rules. However, being as it was not explicitly against the rules I think any retroactive punishment is a stupid thing for baseball to do.

My argument against RB has always been about whether or not it is likely Bonds ever used PED's, with a slight tangent on whether using them was cheating before there was a policy.
