Didn't we already know about this from the previous perjury indictment?

i am SO GLAD that there's finally PROOF though. I was getting sick of those douchebags who still tried defending him.

oh man I was holding hope for Bonds too......haha haha........

 

It'd be nice to see Maris be the single season homerun king again along with Aaron being the all-time. Last year I was on the other side thinking it was ok with Bonds to be king and all, but I've changed my mind.

NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!111

What a shock. Sad to see baseball wants nothing to with the all time HR leader, the all time hits leader, and probably the best pitcher of the 90's.

 

Greg Maddux?

Not so fast. It turns out that he didn't fail a test in 2001 after all.

 

It was a typo.

 

Typo spurs erroneous report on Bonds drug test

SAN FRANCISCO -- A typo in court papers regarding Barry Bonds filed late Thursday by federal prosecutors touched off a brief tempest over the mistaken belief that he failed a drug test in November 2001, one month after breaking the home run record.

 

In fact, the government meant to reference a previously reported November 2000 failed drug test that was included in the indictment unsealed last year, U.S. attorney spokesman Josh Eaton said.

 

The mistake prompted a flurry of erroneous reports on television and Web sites around the country.

 

The filing amounted to federal prosecutors defending their questioning of Bonds before a grand jury, and urging a judge to keep the slugger's perjury prosecution on track.

 

Bonds had argued that the questions posed to him by prosecutors were ambiguous and confusing. He demanded that the five-count indictment charging him with lying to a grand jury be tossed out. Bonds has pleaded not guilty.

 

In the filing, prosecutors said Bonds was specifically told before he began testifying in 2003 that he could consult with his lawyers or ask for a question rephrased if he ever got confused.

 

"Bonds never said he was confused or asked the prosecutor to rephrase a question," the government's filing stated.

 

Instead, they said their questions left no doubt that they were asking Bonds about his drug use and his relationship with personal trainer Greg Anderson.

 

Prosecutors said "as the evidence at trial will show, each count charges that Bonds repeatedly lied in answering the same question or questions on the same subject matter."

 

The matter will be the subject of a court hearing Feb. 29.

It was a typo. They meant the Nov. 2000 test that we already knew he failed.

 

Eat s***, Bonds lovers.

But that was before 2001. It is obvious he only does this stuff in the offseason. Come regular season, he is clean as a whistle.
