NEED ANOTHER ASTERISK?
Anyone who wants to put an asterisk by Barry Bonds' home run record keep this in mind, Bonds may have been juiced up when hitting all those baseballs out of the park but now what everyone was thinking appears to have some weight behind it, so were the pitchers he was hitting against. Roger Clemens, Mr. Ageless Seven Time Cy Young Award winner was named in the Mitchell Report as having partaken in steroids and HGH as well. (Wetzel Column, Yahoo Sports)

I wonder if we can just call it all even now.

Cheating is cheating, eh? (juicing the ball, cutting the course in a bike race or get it out of a bottle, the end result is usually the same)

However, "because everyone is doing it" doesn't get Bonds (or anyone else, ie Museeuw, Vino, Clemens, etc) a pass.

At some point, people need to stand up and follow the rules of the communities in which they participate, whether those communities are neighborhoods, sports, cities, nations, bike races, or baseball games.

there's an easy answer to the asterisk situation. just delete him and clemens altogether.
