Tough between Bonds and Canseco but I'd say Bonds.


Guess it would be easier if we could put something like this together

I went with Sammy Sosa. Not only did he get huge , but he also went from clear complexion to crater face acne pock marks which is the 'tell-tell' sign.

Even with Bonds being skinny he was still hitting Home Runs and top in the league in most categories. When I think steroids, I think of Sosa and BigMac.

Canseco has been the loudest; Clemens might become the most obnoxious; McGwire and Sosa started earlier; but only Bonds used them to help become perhaps the very best ever

The face of steroids in baseball is every player that used (probably overwhelming majority), and every manager/official that turned a blind eye to it.

People try to single out Bonds because they generally disliked him prior to steroids even being an issue.

Clemens dug his own grave.
Idiot.

Clemens has total career earnings somewhere in the $100 to $200 million range. He could have given me $1 million to advise him to simply say over and over "I never failed a drug test," "No comment," and other such things. If he wanted to take a more risky approach say "I couldn't hit a single homerun, if I was taking them they must not have worked." No admission, no lying, no jail time

Has to be Canseco; he started it all in 1988 with his 40/40 season and essentially began to end it with his book and testimony in 2005.

His utter arrogance and stupidity got in the way here. hell, he did not even have to be there if I heard right. Another instance of this 'high and mighty athlete mentality' thinking they can live by their own set of rules.

The sad thing is Bonds and Clemens were HOFERS before taking the juice. Their pride got the best of them.
