    I guess if you could mandate everyone doing the same thing then yeah. He said everyone's doing something. There are different techniques.......Armstrong was always accused of doing some kind of red blood cell booster. There's all kinds of crap these guys can take and do.

    I think the most widely used one was the hgh on the old schorn balls.

    ive always said that. pay attention. the fact i hate bonds still precludes everything.

    the fact you're his jock sniffer only worsens it.

    I hate Barry just as much as anyone, but I don't like when people say he wouldn't be jack without the juice.

    I mean, yeah, they've probably helped him, but you can't teach hand-eye coordination, and you can't hit a ball 500 feet without naturally being good.

    He is still the best player i've ever seen, clean or not

    thats why he hits it 290 now. lol

    you cant separate one from the other. people who take them will tell you it gives you a confidence which helps everything including your mental approach which is just as important. once you're off and you think you're average again, you start to suck because you no longer believe you can do what you could prior. a snowball effect. so yes, i think it affects hand-eye coordination, bat-speed everything. if you believe something you have a much better shot at doing it.

    come on, being 40+ years old has nothing to do with his struggles?
    He still has a good amount of HRs for someone who gets walked like he does

    not when you consider what he was doing less than 12 months ago it certainly wasnt his age so suddenly. maybe his lack of recovery time and the fact hes a normal 40 year old all of a sudden may have more to do with it...oh and a size 13 cap.

    Dude - all the Giants fans here are THE WORST BB sniffers...

    And I ask ALL of them - would it be OK if dude was a DODGER
    and on the juice?

    NOT ONE has said "Yes"...

    So it's OK if he's yours, but if not....

    I hate freakin' hypocrites. :angry:

    That is hella interesting info, but it begs the question "What did guys do before supplements?"

    I wondered that too. I don't think the old Tour de France included this many miles. I'll look that up and see.
