You're right ... at the very least there would have to be a paper trail, witnesses, or maybe you could get them to confess. It'll be interesting to see how quickly Bonds' skills deteriorate now that he's off the juice ... Hank Aaron might be safe, assuming Bonds hasn't already switched to a newer "undetectable" steroid. Regardless I think it's possible that the whole stigma associated with Bonds and McGuire will have HOF voters passing on them every year. I feel they have damaged the game in ways comparable only to the Black Sox and Pete Rose. If you're a marginal player who's barely getting by, I can see the temptation to use roids ... it's still cheating, but I can understand it. But when you're one of the game's premier players on pure talent alone, and then you hit the juice toward the end of your career so that you can break a few hallowed records, then you are an absolute disgrace to the game and shouldn't even be allowed on the field.
