41 years old, best player in baseball???

Ya Think??


Remember like 6-7 years ago when Barry was declining, his numbers going down, nowhere near the numbers hes putting up today. You expect me to believe at 34-35 years old this guy changed something in his workout regiment or something else in this game that turned him into the best power hitter in the history of the game at the twilight of his career?? Hell NO.

This mans on steroids. Has been for 6 years.

Well considering how skinny and scrany he was during the years that should have been his athletic prime it's difficult to believe that he hasn't used something to bulk himself up to what he is today. Same as McGwire who seemed to be in better shape in his late 30's than he was in his prime. Still Bonds does show tremendous plate discipline and smarts that one would gain with experience. He also doesn't seem to show any signs of having his mind messed up like traditional roid users do. What does it matter anyways baseball players aren't real athletes anyway so who cares if they use Roids or not. :P
