One asteric or two ... cheating needs a footnote.
A doctor stated that Bonds (being healthy in all other respects), gained two complete hat sizes in the last few years and the ONLY explanation that holds water, is the FACT that he has been taking growth hormones (steroids) ... nothing else can explain this growth.
Bonds is guilty of cheating, even though he has NEVER failed a drug test ... the growth demonstrated through the two size hat size increase, demonstrates steroid usage that can NOT be explained by a workout regimen of a legal bulkup weights program. Bonds deserves an asteric or two beside ANY record he has ever broken or will ever break ... (his cheating deserves a footnote) ... the footnote should read:
"Record made possible through the use of modern chemistry, NOT by a legal work ethic".
