[Slammed 5,000+ posts]

Its obvious that Bonds will break Hank Aaron's HR record.....the question is when.

How does everyone feel about it?

I do not think he deserves it //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/imo.gif.3a57bcc70a4835dc53e86ffae1a0b041.gif

Pete Rose needs in, Bonds needs to break a leg, literally.

Hitting home runs requires great hand-eye coordination, and steroids do not improve that.

That requires a natural talent.

If nobody b!tched about Babe Ruth playing drunk when he set the record, then Bond's deserves no less respect if he breaks the record.

"Performance Enhancements" DO turn deep pop-ups into HR......which Bonds had plenty of a few years back.

Thats still related to hand-eye coordination.

Tell me how steroids improve someones timing of hitting the ball at the right point of a swing.

You guys believe home runs demand pure muscle, but Aaron wasnt a muscular guy by todays standards, he just had the ability to hit the ball in the sweet spot on the bat at the right point of his swing more consistently than anyone before him.

3I never said Bonds didn't have talent. Of course he does, but I still think his ego lead him to cheat.

i don't think you get the point. Yes, barry can hit the ball, we all know that. But steroids give him stronger muscles, which in turn allow him to swing the bat harder, which in turn makes the ball go farther.

he has the technique down, he's just cheating so the ball goes farther everytime he hits it because he has more force on the ball.

+He an ***.

I hope the pitchers just intentionally walk him so he doesn't get the last HR. If i were the pitcher and he needed one more i'd throw a 100mph fastball at his head.

that would be great if everyone intentionally walked him

There is still a chance he could get severely injured somehow
