re: Barry Bonds still has it, beat all Marlins hitters in a homerun contest

Yes, Bond did roids. But his gains over the period of time they happened in was not that remarkable in my experience, and the experience of friends/teammates. Nor is his weight loss after the fact.

He gained a total of 5 lbs (listed weight) over his first 10 seasons. Then between 1996 and 1997, his age 31 and 32 seasons, he gained almost 20 pounds. Over the next 5 years he put on an additional 20 pounds. And it's not like he got fat. So you're arguing that 40 pounds of muscle gain isn't remarkable for a man in his 30s because you gained 80 pounds when you hit puberty?
