That's a laughable defense of Bonds. I don't think anyone would be nearly as upset if Bonds had "sharp cleats".

Oh, give me a break! Thats not the same thing as pumping your body up with drugs so you end up looking like a freak , for starters. And by the way, Cobb's lifetime batting average was over 80 points higher than the league average, and he didnt do it by "sharpening his cleats".

Sheesh, youre gonna have to do better than that. Throughout history, even the great players went into severe decline when they hit 36,37. Oddly enough, thats when Bonds had his most fantastic years. What a coincidence!!
