Yes, and suspend them for a full season without pay.

Banned = erased from the game = no hall of fame, etc. No need to suspend someone who's banned LOL

implement new randomized testing and shut the players out if the players union won't agree. anyone caught with steriods after new testing is in place gets two strikes. stike one = your done for the season. strike two= your done for life. players who have tested positive past tense get asterisks next to any record they break and generations to come get to laugh at this silly era of cheating bytches like Barry Bonds and Jeremy Giambi. Barry - you shame the game and those around you including your god father who probably has a few views of his own which he keeps to himself.

i would say no total banning for the same reason I would not ban PEte Rose from baseball for wagering. Yes the integrety of the game was at risk by these actions but its still just a game, this is not life and death here, and these are great talents. Some punishments, of course, suspensions, rehab, community service, fines for the teams and trainers, tough testing but not a total ban. no . The public world of public opinion is enough of a lingering punishment for the legacy.

Of course not, 80% of players took them and could not do ****. You need immense talent to do what Bonds did period.

Being real strong does not make you get around on a fastball at 93 mile per hour

roids mean zero with bat speed, hand eye coordination, ect

Roids help you run faster, lift more weight, more stamina. THe only thing it might of done was keep Bonds Body from not breaking down that much at an advanced age.

The rookies are out in this thread I see

in the realm of weight training, speed=power and power=speed. .hell yes it helps him get the bat around faster and drive the ball through with more power.
