Eric you need only look at the Giants clubhouse where Barry rests in his private recliner or his "fantastic" relationships with his former team mates like Jeff Kent to see Bonds is out for himself and no one else. and no I never met him personally, but was a friend of Glenallen Hill ( you remember him as a Giants fan) who was and is a class act and stand up guy. Barry wan no team mate to him... While Bonds may play and play on I contend he does so for only his own gain. As for calling bonds an a-hole one need only lok to his exchanges with fans and media for clear proof the guy has little regard for anyone other than Barry Bonds. As a Giants fan you must surely remember Bonds commenting on the possibility of McGwire and Sosa juicing as he became jealous of their run. Bonds damn near admitted to KG Jr and associates he was tired of fighting the trend and had some good years left in which he would "get paid".
I won't deny he has made an astounding accomplishment, but I do feel his accomplishment is tainted by possible use. This is not the hero or role model anyone should look up to and his behavior does nothing for the game of baseball overall.
Again, this is just my opinion and I 'll respect an honor yours, but I must disagree with you in that I have little love for Barry Bonds. No matter for as Barry himself said, "Love me or hate me, I don't give a S**t!!"
Oh... why is the post in "Time Talk"? anyone game for moving it to OT?
