The difference between Bonds and Pujhols

Bonds is what, 42? Pujhols is 25? It's not amazing for a 25 yr. old to have 21 homers at this point. It is amazing when a 40 yr. old does that. Not amazing, suspicious. Furthermore, "pre-additive" Mark McGwire had 33 home runs at the All Star break when he was young and skinny and played with Oakland. He ended up with less than fifty, I think.
The point is, if Poopholes hits 73 homers this year, that does not vindicate Bonds' cheating. I'm sure all the Bonds lovers are ready to say, "See, it's possible to hit 73 home runs in a year!" NOT WHEN YOU'RE FORTY!!!!!!!!!!! When most players can't even hit .250 at that point. It may be that Albert is the next Babe Ruth, but that it no way exonerates Bonds' misdeeds.
Every power hitter shows a decline in home runs after 35 yrs. old. Explain to me how Bonds hit more homers AFTER 35 than before?
