    I'm still waiting for an answer to it.
    There is no way Bonds could be banned when many other players were doing it at the time. I am also glad to saw the way in the other thread

    That's still not an answer to my question. It's a "yes" or "no" question, so please answer it as such. Don't tell me why you think he won't be banned, just tell me if you'd be okay with it if it happened.

    Saw the way? Giving up on you as I have with so many other Giants fans is not "seeing the way". Bonds is still a cheat and a criminal, and despite your best efforts, your words can't change that. If you choose to believe him over all the evidence against him, that's your prerogative. I choose to believe the overwhelming amount of evidence against him.

    I'm confident that Selig the dumbo-eared assclown will come down hard on a few Triple A and MLB bench players that nobody has ever heard of.

    Giving up You were talking about irrevlenat shit like elbow surgery. You were all over the place and trying to have it both ways.

    As far as your question, if Selig banned Bonds then no I would not be fine with it. Plenty of men have cheated and nothing happened as far as a ban.

    great timing for this eh? right before opening day. Its pretty pathetic there only doing this because of 2 bonds haters wrote a book based on a personal bias point of view.

    i said it before, you cant accuse anyone of cheating when you dont even know what they did was cheating or not

    rose betted on baseball and he's banned, so did shoeless joe jackson and he's banned, and its written in every single locker room not to be bet on baseball, it doesn't say not to use steriods.

    Comparing Bonds to Rose is irrelevant

    i mean, really, who gives a shit? If Bonds were hitting homers for your team, you'd love him too.

    Its his business if he wants shrunken balls, not mine.

    Honestly, I think going into the past is stupid... Worry about whats going on now and trying to clear it from baseball. This is a investigation centered around Bonds more so than any other player suspected of using steriods in the past.

    Funny how Selig has known this has been going on for numerous years and now that Bonds is closing in on Hank Aaron he decides "Oh ok, I think now is the appropriate time to check and see which of my little bat swingers was doing a No-No!"

    This whole thing is a fluke because like a lawyer for a MLB player said players can't be forced to testify because there is no sapina or grand jury forcing them too, so by law they don't have too. Then you will see baseball threaten to suspend or fine these players and it will all just become a bigger mess rather than something positive.

    Another one of Selig's dumb moves that stands a higher chance of failing rather than doing anything positive for baseball.
    "They asked me if I wanted the ball in Game 6, and I said yes. I'll always say yes. That's what I did with Jack McKeon. I told him, 'Let me see how I feel tomorrow.' I went out, did a long toss, came in and said, 'I'll pitch, I want it, I want to do it.' And it ended up working out." -Josh Beckett

    No one has mentioned the comment from the fidiot Selig...."the investigation is for the integrity of the game" HA, since when has he given a rats ass about the "integrity" of the game? Rich coming from such a buffoon. I agree with BoSox34. Yet, we are STILL stuck with this fidiot until 2009......shameful.....shameful......and nothing but lip service....

    You have to wonder where this "integrity of the game" stuff was when Sosa, McGuire and Bonds were shattering the HR record (and it was clear something was terribily wrong) --- all of a sudden? Well the owners were making lots of money and Selig and the rest of 'em just turned their heads. Shameful is right.
