Let me make myself perfectly clear that I am not a fan of Berry Bonds braking Hank Aaron's all time HR record either.

I was just interested in what others thought about this. I thought the views expressed would be like our typical political thread, where I would see from very liberal to very conservative. But it is good to see that, so far, people have very low tolerance for cheating... at least in sports.
