| Why isn't anyone discussing Bonds? This is one of the biggest bombs to hit sports in a long time....maybe ever
I think its fitting and I feel almost a sense of relief now that its actually happened...
Here is a guy who has openly defied the law for years...
It's been obvious to everyone that he was juicing but he denied it...he even went in front of a jury...took an oath under God...and lied
Well here's to you Bonds...you basically dared the authorities to indict you for lying....you thought you were bigger than baseball and even the federal government....Now you'll be lucky to not go to jail for this

| Barry Bonds is a f n criminal who imo, would be best classed with Orenthal. To hades the both of em. Its still Aaron's record to me and always will be. I dont even acknowledge that slugs exsistence. Send to peice to prison.

| i really could care less. it's not like it's new news about it, it was all just "speculation" before. the story has been hashed out and hashed out.
the way ESPN covered this last night, you'd of thought it was a national disaster or something.......
between Bonds and A Rod.......i could give a crap less.
oh, hte poor multi hundred millionaires........cry me a river. I loved the line about A rod, and this is when i turned the channel, "he settled for $275 Milllion over 10 years.......he didn't get his $350 that he wanted......".
poor efn bastard.
click, next channel........"my name is Earl" was coming on.

| The guy is a woman beater, and a cheater. He lied in court, kinda like OJ. He is an excellent athlete who should be celebrated, yet he never will be because of his off the feild behavior and obviously poor judgement. Now if you like em, great. Or if you just hunt down my opinons and like to argue, good for you. Enjoy yourself. I was making a comparison that IS reasonable. They both lied, they both suck, they both are fn criminals, they both deserve to go to jail......There VIA argue with that. I respect you, but dont placate me.

But let's keep it in perspective. Perjury is serious, IMO. Steroids, while bad, isn't even close to being on the same level as a double murder. Woman beater? There is no proof of Bonds doing that - and honestly, I'd never heard a rumor of that.
Point me in the direction of evidence that I've ever argued with you. You won't find it. You're being a bit sensitive. You can disagree and debate without "arguing." Relax.

| fair enough, "arguing" was poor word choice. Its my understanding that it has often been speculated and at times proven that Bonds has severly mis treated his wife. I believe I remember him cheating on her in the mid 90's and then the abuse rumors began to circulate when she went public. But your right, I dont have my hands on the specifics and as we all know, you had better get your facts ready before posting in here. Regardless, though, my memory is pretty good and this is what I asscociate with him.
