Only 2 years left on that 3/$27mil monstrosity, no worries Bobs . . .

Frank McCourt has ruined your team - have fun rooting for the Angels while the Giants get demolished in the NLDS.

Dodgers bullpen has been hyped up all spring, but we just gave up 2 runs.

And Bartolo Cologne (i know that isnt how you spell it) just gave up 2 runs.

I wish I was at Petco

LOL we got yelled at by security last night for heckling Barry Bonds. I was instructed to stop mentioning his anatomy because there were children present. HOW WERE THOSE PARENTS PLANNING TO EXPLAIN BARRY BONDS TO THEIR CHILDREN?!!!

ahaha

what else did you say!? oh man that is hilarious. did he even acknowledge you at all!?

Greg Maddux is 4-0.

[KSigkid]

Well Randy Johnson finally had a good start.

It's awful, but every time Giambi has a good game, I think "I hope he's not back on roids."

[Thrillhouse]

The white sox are on quite a roll right now. Thome is looking like he has something to prove.

I think he heard some of it -- he kind of turned to look at us a few times. I was drinking heavily and don't even remember everything I was saying. After getting yelled at for the anatomy comments (although really, "balls" could mean, you know, BASEBALLS) I commented on his poor sportsmanship and the fact that he is a bad example for children. Then I made fun of his sciatica and I think my favorite was "HEY BARRY! MY MOM IS IN HER 60s AND HAS DIABETES AND SHE CAN RUN FASTER THAN YOU!!!"

The home run he hit went RIGHT TO OUR SEATS but we were in line for beer at the time so we missed it. I really wanted to catch the ball and throw it back, but oh well. I catch about as well as Barry Bonds, so it really didn't matter.

Personally I think everyone should give the whole Barry Bonds thing a rest. No one will every know for sure what he did and didn't do/take. He will never fail a drug test so its hard to accuse him of anything. And if you don't think he hasn't been tested multiple times you are an idiot.

Also, I was listening to ESPN radio and they had some interesting statistics. Of the 104 players that have failed drug tests for steroids, more than 54% of them have been pitchers. So before people start bashing all of the great hitters in MLB, they may want to consider the fact that there was a very good possibility of them having to face a juiced up pitcher every game.

I agree. Plus, there are some who think that Bonds is the one of the few who have taken steroids. People forget that he was in the middle of a hall of fame career before the alleged steroid use. I would rather see a full investigation rather than just ripping Bonds. There are quite a few players who I can think of off the top of my head who could have been on them due to overinflated one or two season stats that I won't mention.

I am kind of indifferent about Barry Bonds as a player but I think the treatment of him is unfair since there are quite a few other players out there who are just as likely to have been rumored to juice.

[macallan25]

I agree. I also can think of quite a few players who were noticeably different. My favorite reference has always been Brett Boone. Averaged about 15 HR's a year and then magically hits .330 with 46 bombs a couple years ago all the while looking like a pint sized mr. universe. Then the steroid scandal comes out and he does nothing for two more years, his body breaks down, and he retires.

yeah what a douche.

Luis Gonzales came out of nowhere and hit 57 dingers as well, then went back to hitting 25 or whatever.

You know it's his attitude that makes him an easy target. I'm not trying to justify anything people are doing to him, but lets not forgot that he isn't the most innocent guy in the world.

if bonds get ridiculed for roids, then shuold other players get the same from fans too? sure. Palmero got it pretty bad last year. Is he even playing this year? I'm sure if there were other players that have the same star status, and who is just as big of an A-hole as Bonds then fans would get all over them too.

I was really surprised the Dodger fans didn't go off him as hard as other fans have. But then again, Dodger fans are really stupid and unoriginal. The only thing I've heard Dodger fans say to him was " you're a homo", " f*ck you bonds!", or " your dick is small just like your brain" or something stupid like that.

[macallan25]

Yeah I'll agree too. I think the fans would be quite different if he was a genuinely good guy. It probobly doesn't help him at all considering he's a racist, highly irritable bastard.
