True, he has never been tested because of MLB lax attitude about it. Did you guys read the Sports Illustrated story that I linked on the steriods thread. Barry has a lot of explaining to do. There is so much evidence from so many people that its hard to believe that no wrong doing was done. Every day for the last week or so I have been hearing stories, testimonials by witnesses, and other accusations of Barry Bonds and his drug taking.
In fact today on NPR, Frank DeFord, who is a well respected jounalist and writter blasted MLB and wants the press to have absolutely no celebration of him breaking the records of Ruth and Aaron. I think there will be a petition around the country for no celebration. I wonder what John Feinstein thinks about this.
In fact, I had heard there was a conspiracy by MLB not to do anything because MLB was at an all time low in 1994 with the 232 day strike and when records were being broken it was bringing back people to the game. In fact, there is a book about this called Jucing the Game and it details all of the wrongdoing and how MLB was never going to do anything about it. It took Congressional pressure and WADA to get involved and get a policy for drug testing. In the meantime, the damage was done so to speak.
Its not just Bonds, no one was ever tested for steriods and that is the fault of MLB. So true we can say that but do we really believe that everyone involved was 100% clean. What about Balco and the people associated with that?
