Dude his forearms were gargantuan before.  Not sure about the rest of his body, that's hard to see in layers on layers of uniform.

Monster calves, though.

McGuire lost 32-35 pounds, easy. He looks much better. Although when you're filthy rich, it's easy to look good.

Baseball players on steriods is a total waste. Its like shooting blanks. No better then a billiards player or a tennis player on gas. I can see hockey or football as they are contact sports plus it helps them recover from injuries....but baseball??? Come on  :( Waste of juice.

i'm from St. Louis and i've seen this guy in person when he was in his prime around 1998 and he really wasn't that big except for the forearms, the media greatly exaggerated this guy's size, in person he was around 6'4" and maybe 240-245 with big arms but nothing else.

Why should he get into the Hall of Fame? He was a crappy
defensive player and only a 263 career hitter. However,
he'll get in based on the fact he hit over 500 career homers.
That's basically an automatic pass.

Sarc, supposedly he had 19" arms, his back looked pretty broad too. He did have the popeye  forearms. He sure looks deflated in these pics.

Exactly, that and 70 in 1998. 500 taters doesn't mean what it used to mean. Guys like Eddie Murray, Rafael Palmiero, guys who played forever getting 500+. Luis Gonzales hitting 57 in 2001. What a sad joke.

Bet you he doesn't make it first ballot. The writers are going to make a statement about his steroid use. That dumb stuff he said at the Congressional hearing made him look like a fool.

its a hell of a lot easier to play 162 baseball games a year as opposed to 20 or so football games. the list of injuries and severity of injuries is not even close. the fact that Cal can play what was it two thousand or so games and set the record for most consecutive games played and the record in the NFL is like two hundred something by Favre supports this. also just the mere fact that the regular season is only eighteen weeks with one bye week goes to show how tough the sport is. if baseball was so physically tough they wouldnt be able to play as many games as they do.

No way buddy go swing a bat all day and throw a ball. theres good reasoning for the healing. And strength wise to look at how well these guys hit on roids. Look at sammy when he layed off or the 1st basemen from NY Yanks. Giambi the guy couldnt hit worth shit for a while off the gear. yeah he got his swing back but not as dangerous as when he was on gear.. baseball is a killer sport on rotater cuffs and shoulder injuries.

Yeah.  No question it helped him, just like it helped Bonds.  Bonds doubled his homerun production from 1 HR ever 16 at bats to 1 every 8 at bats while he was on the sauce.  Huge advantage.

I just find it amusing and absurd that any adult would come before a congressional committee and utter “I’m not here to talk about the past” in response to questioning.  What did he think he was there to talk about?  We all understand not wanting to incriminate himself in the face of obvious steroid use, but come on . . .  Any low budget PR firm or law school graduate could have crafted a better response. 

The guy is a class A moron.  Talk about dumb jocks; I know dumb bodybuilders who are smarter.

And Palmeiro lies to the Grand Jury!

Bonds does talk like a homo. I've been waiting ages for someone to bring that up.  :D
 
I dunno about McGwire going to the hall of fame, but Bonds is first ballot. He was a 40/40 guy even before he juiced up and would have still hit 500 homeruns even if he didn't juice up. Hope he signs with an AL team, he would be able to surpass Hank Aaron easy.

yeah, I actually cheer for Bonds.

I know he has a rep as a prick, but I think he is the best baseball player since the 1960s

Perhaps he'll sign with the Angels and I'll get to see him break the record live. that would be kinda cool. if he decided to DH, he could play another 2 seasons
