Bonds would have made the HOF before he started juicing, IMO. But I have no doubt that the home run records are bogus.

The NFL has testing for steroids also....seriously.

I hear what you are saying but one has to believe that testing in baseball is being taken seriously considering the PR hit that the league and the players have suffered.

I think when you look at the home run totals it's obvious that they have tailed off considerably, which might be a sign that testing is working.

Hold on there just one minute, Buster! Didn't you hear? Steroids don't help you hit home runs! It's all hand-eye coordination!

It has to have changed things some, yes. However, guys are going up against four different dudes in the same game that are all throwing 95 MPH with damn good control these days also.

I've never argued that once in this thread. But you've ignored all the relevant points I've made.
