its tough to punish roid users for using roids when you...could...use...roids. it wasnt against the rules because there were no rules.
what you can say is that dudes like mcgwire and sosa dont put up their hr numbers without them. palmeiro got caught. but to me bonds and clemens are in a different category. they are so good with or without the roids it doesnt matter. im not their parent, im not going to punish them for doing it. bonds' numbers post balco when he couldnt even move were video game numbers. its categorically insane how good he was.
