I feel kind sorry for Barry Bonds.

I mean you know he cries himself to sleep every night.

11/1/2007 10:10:59 PM

yeah, and wipes away his tears with $100 bills. Boo frickin' hoo. Pity for Barry Bonds... that seems counterintuitive to me.

11/1/2007 10:26:31 PM

He is a worse piece of shit then May-Rod. What does he really think someone will give a shit if he boycotts the HOF. Most people I know don't think he belongs in there anyway with his juiced up stats....

I think that's exactly what he should do... boy that'd sure show everyone!

well, since you've opened the can of worms

assuming bonds was steroid-free before 2000, he was probably already a hall of famer

either way, can we give his spot to dale murphy?

Maybe if he wasn't such a prick all the time, people wouldn't have voted for his ball to have an asterisk. This is the best case scenario for MLB, assuming A-Rod breaks the record eventually. Then people can forget about him.

Too bad the Hall didn't say they would boycott Bonds because record-setting ball has to have an asterisk.

***Official Barry Bonds Asterisk HR Ball***

Asterisk or not, he belongs in the HoF. But he needs to be the bigger man about this. The HoF didn't put the asterisk on there, Marc Ecko did. The HoF is just displaying what was given to them.

Haha I loled. GG.

Until you put Charlie Hustle in the HOF, fuck Bonds

11/2/2007 11:20:13 AM

what does pete rose have to do with the bonds discussion?

11/2/2007 12:19:21 PM

Sounds like a win-win situation to me.

11/2/2007 5:40:18 PM

But apparently it's perfectly acceptable to have Roger Maris asterisked for breaking Babe Ruth's home-run record.

11/3/2007 3:12:10 PM

good. I can't stand Bonds. He is absolutely full of himself and he has no place in the HoF. I mean, the fucker won't even let his mug be shown in a fucking VIDEO GAME. what a piece of shit

there was never an asterisk beside maris' record

^ there are plenty of players who aren't members of the MLBPA, it's not like bonds is the only one

yeah i don't understand what the fuck this is talking about either

11/3/2007 4:22:48 PM

It's obviously not possible, but what if he is innocent?

now THAT is some bullshit. why the fuck would the man need to PAY TAXES in order to keep something that costs less than 5 bux? fucking government bullshit

you are dumb

11/3/2007 10:27:21 PM

Maris did have an asterisk. I believe its for playing in more games than Ruth did to hit his 61?

Nevermind I guess? wiki says it was just a rumor..

[Edited on November 5, 2007 at 3:02 AM. Reason : no asterisk?]
