How many times did he test positive for steriods??? same amount of times as Lance Armstrong....none.

Hank Aaron hit like 150-200 in the launching pad...

steroids doesnt actually make you stronger, it only gives you water weight.

steroids wouldnt actually make him hit the ball any harder. it just gives muscle mass.


Correct me if im wrong, but that is my understanding of it.

A-Rod is going to break it eventually, so who cares how he did it.

just give the man
 

just give the man the credit he deserves. On steroids or not, he still hit 756 homers, thats good enough for a fu**en applause. Go barry!!!

This is only my opinion, so don't get your panties in a bunch.

756 home runs. Hell, even the first four hundred or so, is hard as hell to accomplish. Steroids doesn't help with the knowledge of the game, seeing pitches, and correctly swinging the bat to get good contact on a 95mph fastball. Performance enhancing drugs doesn't help with consistency and hell, I'm not even sure if it helps with staying healthy enough to be effective in the game for two decades. I'll give him his credit. Hey, two words, "Jeremy Giambi". LOL

Besides, A-Rod is going to crush that record in 6-7 years. If he doesn't, Ryan Howard or Albert Pujols has the potential to do so. Records are made to be broken anyway.

roids don't improve your aim.

and no one ever brings up the fact that Ruth never had to hit a ball over 80 mph.

“I hope baseball can soon stop talking about steroids. What I do know is the ballparks (today) are smaller and the ball is harder. I know those are two reasons for more home runs. Maybe steroids were the third reason. I don't know.”

but i will agree with one thing.. you still have to be able to hit the ball steroids or not... but i do believe that.. and flatline.. you're totally wrong.. that steroids make you stronger.. so with a mix of barry's talent for making contact with the ball and strength from steroids, its a deadly combo for baseball records.

having the strength given to you by steroids is the equivalent of having a corked bat.. it helps build muscle mass.. which means what? more strength.. which means what? the ability to swing a bat MUCH easier.

but again i can't ignore the fact that steroids don't make you hit the ball. but with the combo.. he still cheated.

homeruns sell tickets.

low score game = boring

good pitching = boring

football took over for a reason.

^^so he shouldn't be able to compete against a hank aarons record... completely different scenarios.
