And Yea he gained a lot of endurance and strength from taking steroids but if your truly a baseball fanatic and watch his swing, the way he hits a 88-98 mph fastball is amazing. And i don't get how useing an elbow guard is bad at all...cause if you have been hit with a pitch that is 85+ in the arm then you could understand why he wears one. And if your really said that an elbow guard will help you from taking a bad swing. Then truly you don't know baseball. It might help the path of is right elbow to go to the ball better with out striaghting so he doesn't role over but...he could still drop his back shoulder, pull his head, open his hips...there are hundreds of things he could still do wrong...but i guess now all you need is your front elbow to hit the ball. Steroids gave him strength and speed but not eye hand cooridantion. He rarely ever takes a bad swing so get off his back... I could care less for what he takes, or anyone else. If they want the chance of being badly effected by a drug then thats their problem. If you couldn't already tell, I play college ball, and Last night, i faced a guy that is on steroids in fact and guess what he did...K...5-3...U-3. It doesn't matter what the player is on...It matters how good he is. I agree that he isn’t a good role model to look up to…but there are a lot of people who love to watch him play.

Not as many people talk about how that thing prevents you from having a bad swing. Cyborg. Also, Hank Aaron didn’t have home run hitting device on his arm.

As somebody who enjoys baseball, I've been bothered by Bonds. Not only by the steroids, but by the fact that the guy that holds THE record has never been a role model or someone to look up to. And definatly not a good poster child for MLB. He's almost always been an ego maniac problem causing whining bitch. Babe Ruth certainly wasn't a great role model . In fact he's the anti-role model. He was a fat drunk man that held THE record until a man who used to get paid $10 a game in the Negro League, broke it. My suggestion is that baseball split into 3 new games. Roidsball, which would be baseball where you are free to use whatever drugs you want. Classic baseball with a daily drug test for every player, 365 days a year. And Futurama Blurnsball, with manatory steroids. As fun side note/fact. Hank's brother Tommie played in the Majors also for Atlanta and together they hold the record for the most home runs hit by a pair of siblings with 768. 13 of those were Tommies.
