I'm tired of hearing all of these people talk about this "black/white" study and how white people don't want Bonds to break the record because he's black. That thought process is completely ludacris. An African American has held the record since the 70's. It's people like the media that keep racisism is sports going by doing stupid surveys and breaking them down racially. As a caucasion male, I don't care about the color of Bonds' skin. I just don't want him breaking the record because he's an arrogant pric who (even though he hasn't admitted to doing steroids) obviously has used steroids. If for nothing the reason that most blacks voted for him to break it, is due to the fact that Bonds himself is black. It has nothing to do with white people having a problem with a black man in a high place.


Race doesn't matter. Why is there this speculation. This should not be happening. Barry Bonds has cheated and should be kicked out of the game.


Wow, somebody hasn't been watching the sports news. You didn't hear about the survey that ESPN/ABC did? It's all over the news. Worst part is, I'm probably going to lose this throwdown because your response was "Why is there this speculation."

Read that, then have an actual debate with me. I do beleive he's cheated and should be kicked out, but that has nothing to do with what the debate is about, it's about race.

He did admit to taking steroids in his testimony to the grand jury. He said he didn't know it was steroids. He knew.

I hate WWWD10, you are a first grade jackass that thinks you know everything in the world, and as much as it pains me you are right about this one. I have seen all kinds of stories on how people hate barry B/c he is black. and that's why no one wants him to break the record, wtf Aaron was black, but he wasn't a jackass and he didn't cheat.
