Still never failed a test, unlike David Ortiz.
Why isn’t there an asterisk next to Hank greeny lover Aaron’s 755?
Every single era of baseball cheated in some way. The way people have made it an individual issue with Bonds and Clemens is a joke.
A big part of the reason Bonds never failed a drug test was that he was using a masking agent that is specifically designed to conceal the presence of anabolic steroids.
The "clear" was the anabolic steroid, and the "cream" was the masking agent.
Hank Aaron's "greenies" weren't specifically designed as a PED the same way anabolic steroids are.
But even if we want to pretend that they were, this is a good transition into your final point. The point about an individual issue being made with Bonds and Clemens.
Aaron, and several other players, who used "greenies" or some form of PED have been honest and forthright about their usage.
Bonds and Clemens have decided to deny, deny, deny, and this is one of the main things that pisses people off about them. Because their constant denials are indicative of a serious integrity issue and indicative of serious character flaws.
If they would have been honest and forthright the way so many others have been, then people wouldn't be making it such an individual issue with them.
Society is much more forgiving towards people who admit their mistakes, and much less forgiving towards people who deny their mistakes.
