Sports Illustrated has posted the whole steroids story on its website. You can read it here. The article suggests that it was jealousy of that creep McGwire that drove Bonds to use steroids for the first time in 1998.
It's almost impossible to measure the damage that Mark McGwire's self-centered pursuit of Roger Maris' record has done to baseball. The same goes for Bonds and Sosa, but as I've already said, McGwire's the bigger devil in my book. I'm no Pete Rose fan, but there's no way his trailer trash gambling and tax evasion antics harmed the game anywhere near as much as what McGwire, Sosa and Bonds have done.
If any of these guys get into Cooperstown, baseball should not only apologize to Pete Rose for its 18 year long moral orgasm over his gambling, but give him a ticker tape parade down Main Street and carry him into the Hall of Fame through the front door.

i don't know where these guys got this info, but i hope this blows up into the biggest scandal sports has ever seen and bonds is completely disgraced. i'm envisioning the great day when he's booed at every ballpark in the country, including his own.
Bonds sucks. That's it.
