Feds finally end prosecution of Barry Bonds
Quote:
Ending this was the right thing to do. Bonds lied and everybody knows it, but I don't see what purpose would be served by prosecuting him and sending him to prison. I'd rather use the prison space on guys who beat the shit out of their wives/girlfriends. |

They never will. He's a top 3 player of all time. That's why the mlb hof is a joke.

Duh number one. I'm a giants fan. So of course it's subjective. Duh number two. When encompassing the entire history of baseball it's illogical, to logically judge players against each other from different era's. Since I watched a majority of his career, and have an autographed jersey from him, of course I think he's a top 3 player. Just take way the steroid talk. He was the only member of the 600/600 club. He was a 3 time NL mvp before there ever was talk of steroids. He was a gold glove defender. He also has the best eye, and greatest understanding of the strike zone and opposing pitchers tendencies that I have ever seen. My top 3. The babe Willie Mays Barry Bonds.

I'm going to say this and i know i'll get destroyed for this. **** it. I don't give a shit.
Barry Bonds cheated. But the only reason he's hated this much is because of the media. Nobody gives a shit about McGwire or Sosa. People still consider Papi a hero. Nelson Cruz an all star. People are actually starting to feel sorry for Tom Brady. And the worst part, fans defend the living shit out of this group of cheaters. Bonds was a cheater. But so were a ton of people during and before the steroid era. The only reason people hate him so much is because the media has shoved it down your throat that you should hate him. |

I agree. He was also an asshole to the media. He grew up watching how they treated his dad. He hated them for that.

Papi is a huge asshole. But the media has worked its ass off to make him a loveable asshole. ARod is sleazy with women. Jeter is just a loveable ladies man. The media has forced this down our throat and we've all bit on it. |

If those old fuggers that vote don't let him in the first try then they are just plain stupid. The whole game was soked with the steroid problem from top to bottom. He is by far deserving. 500 homer and 500 stolen bases. The number two guy with 500 homers has like 250 stolen bases. 7 mvp's and nobody else has over 4. He was the most feared hitter in the history of the sport period.
