Ive never thought about it before today. But it sure seems to chap your arse that people assume he has.

Nah,....what chaps my arse is that I know how difficult it is to hit good pitching and seeing a great hitter not getting credit because somebody assumes he's juicing when there's no evidence to support it. Personally, I've always thought the benefit of steroids is exaggerated. Hitting a baseball is about pitch recognition, weight transfer, hip rotation and bat speed that is generated in the wrists. If it was all about upper body development, the greatest homerun hitters in ther game would have been built like linebackers. Bonds was hitting opposite field HR's as a 185 lb. rookie, McGwire his 49 HRs as a 215 lb. rookie.

How did Hank Aaron hit 755 HRs at and 6'0 and 180 lbs. and Willie Mays hit 660 HRs at 5'10 and 170 lbs? Yet Albert Belle hits 381 HR's at 6'2 and 225 lbs. and he's juicing? Prove it.
