Bonds is the ONLY player to NEVER take steroids. NOW do you see it? BAM EDUCATED!

Hard to believe it has been 10 years since I last attempted to explain to him 1) the difference between proof and evidence; and 2) that the evidence he was presenting didn’t tell the story he thought it did.

I always use my team as an argument against the "Steroids Tainted The Game" crowd.

How many roiders played for the Rangers?

And what did that get them?

Three playoff appearances and one playoff game win.

Not series.

Game.

Seems like half the team was suspected of being on the roids in the late 90s.

More like half the league.
I'm not referring to the Mitchell report, when at least half the legue was suspected. I'm talking about when murmurs of usage first began. Guys started looking like Arnold and the Rangers seemed to employ about 10 or 12 of those guys on their roster back then.

I remember reading an article in the Sporting Green about Ruben Sierra packing on muscle while with the A's. Maybe he learned growth techniques during his time with the Rangers.

It was all over the league and in both pitching and batting that you could argue that the league was on a level playing field.

I'm to blame for him posting strike zone plots. I remember taking the bait once and posting that to refute one of his inane rant, only for him to post them incessantly.

Bonds took steroids and for him to lie about it and have anyone believe him is insane.


Sorry @casinowalker, or @calsnowskier, whatever your name is, you are in denial.
