    For Berra not to be in this discussion is criminal, given his grace under pressure.

    If Miggy cheated to the same extent and length of time as Bonds he'd hit 800 homers. Rather have George Brett than a non PED Bonds

    How do you know Miguel Cabrera is clean? Or how long and how much Bonds cheated? You don't know either of those things.

    Thank you for reminding me why I care absolutely zero about the baseball opinions of roughly 100% of the people in the world.

    I put Bonds starting his noticeable cheating between the '99&'00 seasons.

    That is a guess. You don't know.

    It was between '98 and '99. That was documented in Game of Shadows beyond any reasonable doubt. And the spring training articles about how much bigger he was from working out were in '99.

    Or he started earlier and nobody has proven it. Skinny little guys have been busted for PED use. It is really amazing just how many people foolishly think they can tell just by noting a guy's growth and it is comical just how many people have trouble sorting out the difference between an educated guess and a fact.

    I said "reasonable." That means you don't have to reply.
