Barry Bonds

[Hulud]

wont play after this year
best news ive heard all day

[95jdmdc4]

is it because of the steroid issue?

[thinkfast®]

no, its health related (arthritic right knee)

He was actually quoted as saying "if I can play in '07, I'll play.. if not, I won't"

read it here (http://mlb.mlb.com/NASApp/mlb/news/article.jsp?ymd=20060219&content_id=1315857&vkey=news_mlb&fext=.jsp&c_id=mlb)

Personally, I think he'll break the record this year, then quit. He's always been about himself, never really a team player

[Hulud]

yea i see that now he saiid both things

[thinkfast®]

its all good homey,

I still think this will be his last year anyways... he couldve been a gereat person, a muthafuckin legend- now he'll just be known as some asshole that broke the HR record, and the last few yrs he was juiced while doin it :dunno: LIRL

which is the result of steroid use. at 30yrs old you don't just put 30lbs of lean muscle mass on. it's physicaly impossible without steriods. :2cents:

[thinkfast®]

um, Bonds is right around 42 years old... he only got bulked up in the last few years, and his knee has been operated on 3 prevoius times in his career - cant really say steriods caused it when he was a scrawny outfielder in Pittsburgh.

true, I was just making generalizations. still at 42 there's no way you can get that big that fast without "assistance" :goodjob:

[thinkfast®]

[HyPer50]

But he WILL play the 06 season? Hope so... Bonds rocks. He's the only reason to watch baseball.

[Hulud]

[HyPer50]

I'm already aware of this = )

[1439/2000]

Wait he hasnt broken the record yet has he?!

Oh and baseball...I havent cared since the strike...

[FDslider]

Oh and baseball...I havent cared since the strike...
You were almost eight years old at that time!!!! Still on your momma's titty sipping milk!!! What's up biotch!

[HyPer50]

He's in 3rd place I believe, with 712? i think homeruns.. So he's right behind Ruth, so he'll definatly atleast get 2nd place this year. maybe Aaron's record to. And I'm the same way. I can't get into baseball unless it's deep into the play offs.... or Bonds haha.

703

im serious, $100

[thinkfast®]

Hulud, he has 708 HR, he hit 5 last year..

:lmfao:

Nahh... I'll bet my car that he'll pass Ruth within the year tho lol... He is capable of passing Aaron in a year, but it'd require an insane run like he did in 2000 or 01... whichever it was that he hit 70 somethin' HR's.

[thinkfast®]

not even homey, Hank has what, 744? Bonds hit 40+ HR in 2003-2004.. I think its fallin this year, if he stays healthy

right after 745, that puto is retiring :lmfao:

:lmfao:

[thinkfast®]

aah.. where'd I get 744 from? thats what he hit when he was with Atlanta? hmm

so he needs 47HR to tie, 48 to pass.. it ought to be a good season

[HyPer50]

Yup, he can easily hit 50+ home runs in a season. I am just interested to see what kind of shape he is in when the season starts, but he's definatly capable of breaking both records this season.

you really think he has the ability to hit 50+ still?
first off hes probably only goin to play about 110-120 games
second no one pitches to him with empty bases
third all it takes is a ball to the knees and hes fucked

Of course he has the ability. All it takes is strength and hand eye coordination (which he is excellent at, even pre-bulk days he was a helluva hitter). I'm not saying he WILL hit 50+ hr's this season, just saying it is very possible.
