I agree 100% Briggs. People need to realize that, throughout the history of baseball, people were shooting human growth hormones into their asses. Ruth, Williams, DiMaggio- They all stuck needles into their asses to be as good as they were, and people are bulls-hitting themselves if Bonds wasn't better than all of those guys.
In all sincerity, though, Bonds, pre roids, wasn't on the same level as, say, a Griffey Jr., who was a natural, drug-free talent. He was an all-star caliber player (not 'all time great' caliber), but his production skyrocketed once he sipped from the tainted cup. Look at the bodies of guys from the 70s, 80s, then look at the drugged up monsters from the 90s and 00s. Definite difference in body type.
