I am pretty sure that Barry Bons was very good in baseball too before he took steroids. I think steroids are more of a sleeping aid than a performance enhancer. A sleeping aid for those that do not take them and think that if they do they would be champions too. To them I say, good night.[/quote]

BS.
Claiming they have nothing to do with their success is as dumb as saying it’s the only reason for their success.
No one really knows what would have been, when they started taking, what they were taking, and exactly what % of the results they added.
I know the “steroids don’t put in the work” sentiment is both popular and acceptable on this forum, But the truth is that it’s just as biased.
The bottom line is that the guys took them and risked everything (career, public scrutiny, the asterisk) because they worked. Because on them they could preform better with them. Period.
How much better and whether they deserve to be publicly castrated is another issue. [/quote]
I just had to throw in the “quoted for truth” because I had no idea what Francois was talking about at the time. His horrible butchering of the English language had to be quoted. Now that I was able to decipher his point, I feel obligated to express my disagreement with it.
That is all.[/quote]
I feel obligated to query your apparent ‘back-paddling’ at this time. Were you really trying to be sarcastic and witty or did you, as I suspect, agree with this character Francois’ statement? The question then becomes magnified – are you a truth-teller or are you just a liar? A simple, clear answer to any of these questions should yield enough evidence to stereotype you and therefore prejudice your future posts – that is, if you ever overcome the embarrassment I believe you have suffered at my expense.
Or perhaps we could discuss it over brunch? (I’ll be sure to serve the finest Indian tea)

Nah bro, I don’t think steroids are sleep aids
