I sure haven't missed him and will not miss him the rest of the way.

Indeed. Hopefully it takes Bonds two years to clear the steroids out of his system... err, recover from surgery.

Actually to be fair, he had to be tested when he was on IR. Giants already had their round of testing, so yeah he p*ssed in a cup.

He probably won't be back and probably won't take out the home run record . . . . that way, he won't have to deal with the controversy for the rest of his life.

I could see him coming back to beat Ruth's record because of his racist views towards Ruth having that record.

However, with his age and way your body seems to breakdown after having been on steroids I don't see how he will ever be able to catch Aaron.

Plus now if and its a big if he stays off the roids will he have the same power to get the huge HR totals he would need?

I have heard them say he's been tested - i think its BS quite frankly.

Either the Fan or the Fan in Edmonton had an interview durring the baseball game a few nights ago saying that chronic knee problems are normally a tall-tale sign.

We will see what Bond's "size" is when he comes back, will he be a former shell of himself like Sammy is, or what.
