Since I don’t live in SF, never have lived in SF, and have rarely ever visited SF, I guess you posted another inane comment.

And no cheating by copying articles or bits thereof from the Internet.

Hilarious. The Bonds defenders need to set "special rules" for debate, since they don't have a leg to stand on.

I never said you lived in SF. I pointed out that the Bonds defenders that you are sucking up to are all Giants fans, and I suspect you are too. It would go a long way toward explaining the nonsensical arguments that people are putting forth in support of Bonds' cheating.

I will concede though that if it was a guy on my team that had obviously cheated his way to an amazing record, I don't know if I'd be defending him or not. Home team loyalty can be a powerful thing.

Nonsensical in your opinion. As I’ve stated over and over and over, until the evidence is there I will reserve judgement. You may wish to jump onto the anti-Bonds’ bandwangon, but I don’t do that regardless of who the individual is. You don’t like that I jump to the same place you currently are, too bad.

That should have read: You don’t like that I don’t jump . . .

Getting up at 4:00am the past two mornings, I’m a little punchy right now.

“Perhaps you’ve accidently stopped breathing O2”

Reading some of your amazing and baseless posts that “working out” increases bone mass and causes bone growth I certainly can believe how someone like you can think that. BTW, drinking milk doesn’t increase a woman’s bust size (just in case you believe that too).

Souped up balls, bats, bodies, and ballparks.

OF COURSE someone broke the record. It would have eventually happened anyway, but in that they permit.....

different balls (souped)

different bats (scienced)

different ballparks (shorter)

different bodies (steroided)

..... it’s no wonder that it happened now.

THIS REALLY SHOULD BE:

Good point...it goes beyond the steroids.

Barry Bonds is not a man.

He is a pathetic caricature of his former self.

He well never be know as “The Home Run King”.

He will always be known as Baroid.

Not true. What I don't want is him copying and then using the words as his own.

He's free to use refrences, if they're marked as such and properly footnoted. I mean, he's obviously a doctor or at least he stayed at a Holiday Inn Express last night... In either case, doing this type of thing shouldn't be difficult for him.

But that was a nice deflection.

Please note that he has yet to reply.

Not sure where anyone argued that working out increased bone mass or caused bone growth. Interesting however in that I assume you're asserting that Barry's bones have increased in mass and/or grown. That's cool - You must be a doctor.

So Doctor never4get, I'll ask you the same question I asked Doctor Mr. Mojo - Please explain this in detail. How does this increase in bone mass occur? Why would it occur? Where would you expect to see this increased bone mass and why?

And no cheating by copying articles or bits thereof from the Internet - For clarification, you may use references duly footnoted.

For extra credit, please post any medical evidence that Barry Bonds actually suffers from this condition. Note I said MEDICAL evidence, not photos of him in everyday life.

I stand by my earlier statement. Your need to set special debate rules so you don't lose the argument is funny. And now you're telling people to provide footnotes? That's awesome.

Please note that he has yet to reply.

I think he might be on to something.

Ok Col. Sanders, Mr. Bonds increased skull size and increased foot size is not bone growth. Human growth hormones do nothing to stimulate bone growth? Anabolic steroids do nothing to promote bone growth? Your right, Barry’s increased skull and larger feet never happened. You “I love Barry guys” crack me up. Keep smoking what your smoking, and yes Col. Sanders, perhaps you should stick to chickens.
