Barry Bonds told the grand jury that he did use undetectable substances that were given to him by his trainer Greg Anderson. Prosecutors in the case questioned bonds on the "doping calenders" and other documents that were found. These documents showed that Barry Bonds did use illegal substances that were seized from Anderson's home in a raid in 2003. Barry Bonds physical changes were amazing. Bonds equipment manager stated that since the 1991 season his jersey size has gone from a size 42 to a size 52, his hat size has gone from a 7a to a 7e and his is shaved now. The last four years of bonds career have been the most controversial. He became a central figure in the Balco steroid scandal in baseball. Many are stating that he records are tainted because of the fact that there is just that little bit of doubt about his steroid use. Yet there still is no indefinite proof to prove him guilty or not guilty.

You have really convinced me with Barry Bonds' growth since 1991. Its amazing how a grown man can get that big without any help. Why was Bonds not prosecuted for using illegal substances if documents showed it?
If Bonds confessed to using undectable substances, why is he still playing? Make sure you elaborate on the Balco scandal in your paper. How do you feel about the home run record now that it's broken but might be tainted?
