Barry Bonds is ready to support athletes suspected of doping

Barry Bonds knows what an athlete experiences, when he/she is targeted by feds and anti-doping officials. He understands what this person feels. That’s why the former professional baseball player can sympathize and support sportspersons suspected of doping. Thus, Barry Bonds supports the former American cyclist Lance Armstrong.
During an interview a journalist asked Barry Bonds about troubles of Lance Armstrong linked with doping suspicions. The former baseball player expressed his admiration towards the cyclist. He affirmed that Lance Armstrong was the greatest cyclist that has ever been in the sport of cycling.
Of course, Barry Bonds realizes what he says. He understands what it means to be a good cyclist. After this athlete retired from baseball, he became a cyclist. He participated in several competitions successfully. Being a cyclist, Barry Bonds sees that this sport has the same troubles like baseball. He sees that cyclists are pursued by federal prosecutors and anti-doping officers like professional baseball players.
Both Lance Armstrong and Barry Bonds were suspected of doping. They were prosecuted by feds and anti-doping officials.
Federal prosecutors accused Barry Bonds of lying about administration of forbidden preparations and obstruction of justice. They couldn’t prove that the athlete lied about intake of prohibited preparations. But feds found him guilty of obstructing justice. Barry Bonds decided to appeal the decision of the court.
When it comes to Lance Armstrong, the government dropped the case against him. But the USADA continued to target the cyclist. The USADA claimed that Lance Armstrong had been using prohibited preparations throughout his cycling career. The cyclist decided to discontinue fighting against accusations of the anti-doping agency. He lost his Tour de France titles and money he had received at these events.
Although Lance Armstrong has been stripped of his titles, Americans continue to respect him. They claim that he is the most brilliant cyclist of all times. Lance Armstrong’s sponsors haven’t refused to support his cancer charity. The former cyclist helps people to fight against cancer. So, many individuals are thankful. They will never forget what Lance Armstrong has done for them.
Barry Bonds’ reputation has been spoiled by accusations related to intake of prohibited drugs. The former baseball player hopes that his achievements during the baseball career are more significant than the suspicions. He believes that people will forget about the suspicions and he will be considered to be a baseball star.
