[QUOTE="warhawk, post: 158021, member: 431"] I think it's pretty obvious fooball players have been taking various meds for pain for years. We've watched players hobble into the locker room only to come out after half looking like they could jump off of tall buildings for a LONG time now. I actually think that there was a lot more pill popping in th '70's when that was more the thing and today's guys seem much more aware of what is good and bad to mess with. I played in the '70's and some of the looks on players faces I saw was pretty scary and was not just adrenalin either. I guess what I am saying is that the next guy behind Brett or the next one to get even close to his record will not be a stranger to pain meds. You don't play in that league for years without it at some point. There's where the difference is vs. Bonds and Aaron. If Hank used roids they didn't work to great. He was kind of a skinny feller in his day. The REAL question here is how many home runs would Henry have hit if HE were on roids? Bonds would probably had to play until the standard retirement age to beat that number. Can you really here someone saying "Ya, but Brett took pain medication, man" in front of about 500 retired pro football players. He would get laughed out of the room. People aren't laughing about Bonds. [/QUOTE]
