Bonds Did NOT Fail Steroid Test in 2001

There were reports on Thursday that said according to court papers, Barry Bonds tested positive for steroids in November 2001...months after hitting his 73rd HR of the 2001 season.

Apparently, he DID NOT fail a drug test. The confusion comes from a typo in court papers.

ESPN - U.S. filing typo spurs erroneous Bonds drug report - MLB

That's a pretty big "OOPS" to make. But at least they're correcting the error.

I really don't think this is a bid deal, he's already been indicted and put on the Mitchell Report.

Now bears, correct me if I'm wrong, but Bonds was NOT named in the Mitchell Report, correct?

Re: Bonds Did NOT Fail Steroid Test in 2001

It seems that if Bonds did do 'roids, and hit homers on them...he probably did it against pitchers on 'roids and HGH...its a wash...get him in the Hall and move on...or kick him out of baseball...but do something to end this freakin madness.

His named was mentioned in the section about BALCO. But the report didn't enlighten us about anything new on Bonds.

Cool Re: Bonds Did NOT Fail Steroid Test in 2001

Does anybody think he will learn from Clemens and just admit he did it before he makes things worse for himself.

He can pull a Bill Clinton: Show up in a church, put on false tears, bite his lower lip, ask for forgiveness, and people will buy it!
