Barry Bonds was indicted Thursday for perjury and obstruction of justice, charged with lying when he told a federal grand jury that he did not knowingly use performance-enhancing drugs.


The indictment unsealed Thursday against baseball's home-run king culminated a four-year investigation into steroid use by elite athletes.

"During the criminal investigation, evidence was obtained including positive tests for the presence of anabolic steroids and other performance enhancing substances for Bonds and other athletes," the indictment read.

If he is convicted I wonder if baseball will throw out his records? If they do who would inherent them….McGwire…Sosa? Has anyone in baseball hit more home runs in a year than Roger Maris except for these three?

Are they going to put McGwire and Sosa under oath and demand to know if they took steroids?

Something else I don’t understand… in the story I was reading Bonds was reported to of failed a steroid test starting in 2001. Who gave the test and why were the results hidden?

Magwire had his shit sitting on the shelf of his locker in the clubhouse, and it was clearly labeled "androstenedione"  did every one think andro was just another vitamin??   Seriously though at least Magwire was man enough to admit he was on 'roids, then.  The lying is why I loathe Bonds, hell even Marion Jones has finally come clean about her 'roid use, I hope he does significant jail time.

Status: offline 		I’m a Cards fan but the only difference between Bonds and McGwire is McGwire had a better lawyer…. He was smart enough to refuse to answer the steroid question. He said he did not want to talk about the past only the future.

To me he may as well admitted his guilt then and there.

I say let Maris and Aron keep their records.

He's a dork.

being a chronic pain sufferrer- i was warned about a few things. that is is like using a bandaid to hold a title wave.

i seen a quack that went way beyond- the exceptable 3 shots max. [31]  i refused after 31. 
so i never had number 32.  i hope i stopped it in time.  what this means is next time the punch will be ineffective. with possible other consequences...

roid rage is real.

If this takes him out of the game, then baseball will be a completely pure sport where absolutely no one else will ever take steroids! 

The real crime is how boring baseball is. Who would have thought putting a dozen guys on roids together would have them just standing there for 3 hours.
