Still history. 756, 715.... -- nm - Will Hunting Aug 2, 13:27
tainted or not, it was still history. - groiny Aug 2, 13:25 16
- Not disagreeing on that point. - the liioulu with receipts Aug 2, 13:28 15
  - everyone ignored it, he knew then that the battle with the union was going to be epic. - groiny Aug 2, 13:30
  - He was ignoring it because of a) the 1994 Strike crippled baseball and b) the HR's were putting people in the seats -- nm - amoxy Aug 2, 13:29 1
    - Willfully ignoring it. - the liioulu with receipts Aug 2, 13:34
  - Cuz Bonds didn't test positive in 2005, 2006, 2007.....so not showing up would have been.....suspect. -- nm - Will Hunting Aug 2, 13:29 11
    - Way before that point Bonds had passed suspect and had become tainted. -- nm - the liioulu with receipts Aug 2, 13:33 10
      - Of course. But they had no 'proof'. He's not going to bypass the biggest number in sports for a suspicion. -- nm - Will Hunting Aug 2, 13:34 9
        
        He chose not to. - the liioulu with receipts Aug 2, 13:37 8
        
        How could he confirm it? Bonds PASSED the tests when they counted. You overestimate the ability of MLB to enforce rules that few wanted enforced. -- nm - Will Hunting Aug 2, 13:47 5
        
        Uhm...no...I said that they chose to ignore the issue. -- nm - the liioulu with receipts Aug 2, 13:53 4
        
        as I mentioned yesterday(?), the NHL is now in this position. Do they proactively go after PED users or quietly wait until things happen that they hav - zork Aug 2, 13:56 1
        
        Hmm....never thought about that. - the liioulu with receipts Aug 2, 14:07
        
        Becuase they had no positive test. They had nothing. He didn't bury his head in the sand in 2007. - Will Hunting Aug 2, 13:56 1
        
        Still making my point for me. -- nm - the liioulu with receipts Aug 2, 13:57
        
        he would have gotten sued if he did anything on a "suspicion" - groiny Aug 2, 13:37 1
        
        That is part of my point. - the liioulu with receipts Aug 2, 13:47
