He didn't allegedly use steroids. It's a fact he used them. He's even admitted to it.

I do not think Barry Bonds admitted to taking steriods..He has never tested positive to any steriod test. If he did test positive for steriods he would of been suspended and he's never been suspended for any drug related issues. But besides this did they even have steriod tests back when Hank Arron broke the record or babe ruth..How do we not know them players werent on steriods?

He admitted to using a "substance" but didn't know they had steroids in them. I don't buy it. But to each their own. Fact is, he used steroids, so you cannot blame for people not accepting him.

"Bonds testified that he had received and used clear and cream substances from his personal strength trainer, Greg Anderson, during the 2003 baseball season but was told they were the nutritional supplement flaxseed oil and a rubbing balm for arthritis, according to a transcript of his testimony reviewed by The Chronicle.

Federal prosecutors confronted Bonds during his testimony on Dec. 4, 2003, with documents indicating he had used steroids and human growth hormone during a three-year assault on baseball's home run record, but the Giants star denied the allegations.

During the three-hour proceeding, two prosecutors presented Bonds with documents that allegedly detailed his use of a long list of drugs: human growth hormone, Depo-Testosterone, undetectable steroids known as "the cream" and "the clear," insulin and Clomid, a drug for female infertility sometimes used to enhance the effect of testosterone.

The documents, many with Bonds' name on them, are dated from 2001 through 2003. They include a laboratory test result that could reflect steroid use and what appeared to be schedules of drug use with billing information, prosecutors told the grand jury."

Coincidence? Not in my book.
