So good so quick?!?!?!?! How in the F%$K do you call a guy dedicating his life, life! to becoming the best he can possibly be in the pursuit of one thing (a championship ring) quick?
Look at his numbers, they have gotten better EVERY year. not just the year he hit 73 hr's. I don't think Barry would say he got good QUICK! That's an insult to his talent.
As far as the steroids go.
I am 6-2 (approx. the same heighth as Bonds). When I was in my early 20's I only weighed in the 180 lbs range. I am 30 now and weigh 225 (approx the same weight as Bonds). I used to lift quite a bit, but not that often now, I have NEVER used steroids, If I can gain that weight without 'roids why can't Bonds ( a professional athelete)? Another thing, if you look at pics year by year you can see the increase in size was gradual. Unlike Canseco, he was a hulk in '88 compared to '87.
It's called age, ever heard of 'old man strength'? If you think Bonds is juicing due to his size increase, just wait 'til you grow up yourself and you'll understand.

What are you talking about?
<hr /></blockquote><font class="post">
What do you mean what am I talking about? I'm saying
1.) Bonds did not get good quickly, he's always been good and has continued to improve
2.) Just because somebody is larger at 38 yrs old than they were at 24 does not mean they are on steroids.
Is that clear enough? I guess I can tend to ramble

He's not larger, he is gigantic, you guys need to get yoiur heads out of the clouds and realize people do in fact use drugs to be better at what they do. No matter how much you like him or how close you are ot knowing him, he uses steroids to enhance his game.be who you are and say what you feel, because those who matter don't mind, and those that mind, don't matter.Comment

I never said everyone, and don't tell me to shut up, punky brewster.
Bonds looked like Jimmy Rollins in Pitt, now he is 5 times that size. Get real and grasp reality, he uses steroids. It doesn't make him a bad person, he's not guilty of murder, he's just using steroids to become a better baseball player.be who you are and say what you feel, because those who matter don't mind, and those that mind, don't matter.Comment

Re: How did Barry Bonds get so great so fast?
Listen, I used to be 5'3 and 95 lbs... i'm now 29 and am 5'10 180 lbs... I'm damn near doubled in weight and can max bench 210 lbs.. I haven't touched a 'roid in my life.. I DID use creatine for a while, like a span of a month. While working out full till... I'm the size i mentioned about and I can hit a softball 300'... at least that's what the fence is marked off at.. doesn't mean I'm on roids..
Bonds is the greatest player of this generation, even if he is an a$$hole at times.Comment

Re: How did Barry Bonds get so great so fast?
Eaglesfan, I'm sorry dude, but you're being the IDIOT. and the reason is simple, you are arguing this as if you know it for a fact, and you don't. If you're not a Bonds fan, just say, "I'm not a Bonds fan."
But don't be a *****, and you are being a *****.
I don't like Sosa, I can't stand him, I think he's a selfish player and a showboat, but I don't accuse him of things that I have no real proof of, and you don't have proof, only a feeling.
No, but you accuse the guy and convict him in your mind without a trial and refuse to even consider any other possibilities. You are being a *****, plain and simple.
And another thing, Bonds has not been the size of Jimmy Rollins since 8th grade. Rollins is only 5-8, 165 lbs. I don't think the rest of us need to look any further than this to see you're only a ***** who wishes Bonds was on his team.Comment

While I am not arguing for or against Bonds' alleged use of illegal substances...this statement is asinine. It looks like you are comparing yourself now (29 y/o) to when you were 12! People, that is called puberty, not steroids! Of course you are going to get bigger when you are still naturally growing! However, you don't grow 6+ inches after you are 18 or so, and you almost certainly don't double your weight (if you do, it isn't muscle).Aoccdrnig to a rscheearch at Cmabrigde Uinervtisy, it deosn't mttaer in waht oredr the ltteers in a wrod are, the olny iprmoatnt tihng is taht the frist and lsat ltteer be at the rghit pclae.
