Has Barry Bonds And Roger Clemens Beat The System?

It seems Major League Baseball and the Feds had a clear cut case against Barry Bonds and Roger Clemens when it comes to using steroids. Most baseball observers believe they have used them, but proving that in court has been another whole issue. The Federal government has struggled to get convictions and Clemens was just awarded a mistrial, so you do not know where it is headed that's for sure.

Now even if both players walk away free men it really does not change the opinion of the public as a whole. Most   everyone agrees they both used steroids and that opinion will never change no matter of the court outcome. Just as Mark McGwire has come clean it's time these two players do as well. If not they will always be considered cheaters in the public eye. Admitting they did steroids will still brand them cheaters, but at least the public will have some respect for them. The way it stands right now they are just two guys the public would rather hear nothing about.

A federal judge ruled Thursday that prosecutors cannot show jurors three positive steroid tests and other key evidence in the slugger’s trial next month. This is just another setback in the Barry Bonds trial for the Feds. It seems from day one that they have botched this case and now this is something that is not going to help them at all.

Right now it seems that Barry Bonds and his team have the upper hand and the way it is looking he could walk from this. If he does it really would not surprise me at all. I mean many people are not going to testify against Bonds especially the ones the Feds need so it is going to make it tough on them. I guess we will just have to see how this all plays out in the end.

Barry Bonds Gets Invite To 50th celebration




Barry Bonds will be getting an invite to the San Francisco Giants 50th celebration from moving from New York to San Francisco. Bonds who was not resigned by the Giants last year will be one of many outfielders that will be invited to the celebration.

Now I do not know if Barry Bonds will show up, but it would not surprise me if he does. He likes the limelight and this is a honor he might just like a lot. Bonds is still unemployed this season and it looks like that will continue for a long time.

If Barry Bonds does show up it will be interesting to see how well he is received. Known Giant fans they will probably give him one of the loudest cheers. In San Francisco he is a very popular player.
