If they honestly took time to look in his medical records they would see in stead of stalking him makes no sence because it just makes him refuse to talk to them. :o

The publisher is someone who tryed to scamm Barry Bonds. They tryed to get money from him but it didn't work that whole book is all false infromation.  If you guys were smart look at him with the Pirates and a few years back he was not big like he is now.  Hes had so many injuries its hard to belive you can still play.  And if the media would get off his back and acutally look at the history of growth in his body it would say so many answers. 

Uh huh...  I'm sure the false accusations are also the reason Balco was being investigated by Congress.  Plus, I'm with Homer - people at that age generally can't bulk up like that *naturally* in such a relatively short time.

You want to read the book? you go see and then tell me its not false and it was reported that the publisher is a scamm artist looking for money.  They didn't make any money of this book.

i know itll never happen but record breakers who were known steroid users should have at least an asterisk by their name.it takes away from real record breakers like ruth and maris  :)

Barry Bonds is a loser he completely embrassed Babe Ruth i think last year or the year before in interleague play agiasnt the Yankees. But I forgot what he said.

take away steroids and bonds was an okay player at best.think back to his pirate days where he did nothing special except choke in the playoffs.

You do know that it wasn't the guys writing the book that came up with the info for it? They didn't go around stalking Bonds trying to get him to talk or catch him using or whatever. BALCO were the ones that kept all the statistics of his use.. these reporters only got ahold of the info from BALCO, and other places, and used that info for the makings of the book.

"BALCO, the Bay Area Laboratory Co-Operative founded by Victor Conte, kept track of Bonds' drug use in detail, with folders and calendars that chronicled everything from schedules and quantities to his testosterone levels. Much of that information was obtained by federal agents when they raided the lab in September 2003."

"The Chronicle reporters, who based the book on a two-year investigation, included an extensive summary on their sources, including court documents, affidavits filed by BALCO investigators, documents written by federal agents, grand jury testimony, audio recordings and interviews with more than 200 people."

As for the book making money:

"NEW YORK (AP) - Sneak previews of a book alleging Barry Bonds was a frequent user of steroids have apparently left readers wanting to know more: "Game of Shadows" jumped into the top 10 on both Amazon.com and Barnes & Noble.com after excerpts were released earlier this week.

According to publisher Gotham Books, an imprint of Penguin Group (USA), a first printing of 50,000 has already been increased nearly fourfold, to 197,000. The book's original March 27 publication date has been moved to March 23, Gotham publicist Beth Parker said Thursday."
