When Barry started getting bigger around age 35, Bobby remarked to my dad, "lucky person got it early!". By the time Bobby was back in the public spotlight, the cancer had riddled his body so badly that he was back at his playing weight. Broadcasters, unaware of the bulk he had accrued in previous years, even remarked as to how "great" he looked. My dad knew differently.
Just something to think about -- in all likelihood it's a combination of genes and juice but it at least opens up the possibility of innocence.

For your Bobby Bonds analogy, your pretty much saying, the Bonds family is the only one, out of millions, that grow muscles and bulk, after science agrees, is no longer possible to do, without chemicals???
That report, would be worth millions... erg BILLIONS if it was "true". But I am putting my money on false.
There has actually been no study EVER, that dictates a human being, can reverse the growing ability. Human (males) peak at 27, in other words, stop growing, and in turn decrease their high amount of new cells, etc etc. Its just proven facts.
And from there, you learn, that to grow muscles and weight like Barry Bonds, something, that is not made within the human body is needed. Don't get me wrong, you can be 45, 50 years old, and eat egg whites all year, and look like a lean mean fighting machine. But, according to your post, it "all of a sudden happens" But at the age of 35-45, its almost 5 times harder, to build muscles, then when your 25. So to enhance this, you use chemicals, which in turn, give you side effects.
Its kinda like trying to find any cases, where a humans "head" enlarges, after the age of 27, that does not involve people using steroids. Why??? because its impossible, to remove the water from your head, which is created, when your on steroids. And that is why, body builders, get such large necks, and heads, compared to their earlier years. And you can't eliminate them.
Bobby Bonds just got fat, from eating more calories then he burned. Nothing new there. And he pulled out some lame ass excuse to try and fool your father. That whole "family trate" is the same one, the other millions of American have, and its called, not exercising, and eating like pigs. But I can see how that would get confused with some type of superhero metabolism creation
Bonds is not hated, because he is good. he is hated because he "hates" his fans and the media. Which is the only "no no" you can do in sports.
Raping your wife (Mike Tyson), doing coke on the bench (Darryl Strwberry), betting on baseball (pete rose) all were LIKED GREATER, not HATED GREATER, because they were the best, and great at what they did. Why would it all of a sudden be different for one athlete??
We will forgive you for anything, as long is you don't tell us, you hate us, the fans. And thats the reason why. It could be 100 HRs in a career or 1000, its the same, when it comes to anyone
