Real Giants fans don't give a crap if Barry juiced.
Real baseball fans know roids can't make you a better hitter. The extra power may have gotten him 25-50 more hr (If its ever proved he did use!) over his career. So what is everyones friggin problem. He is still the best overall player ever, bar none.
No I'm not biased, I'm right.

It'll be very interesting to see how baseball looks at Barry Bonds 30 years from now...when time has passed and all we have are stories to tell.
Some of the best conversations I've ever had are with people who were fortunate enough to see the likes of Jackie Robinson, Brooks Robinson, Ted Williams, Mickey Mantle, and Willie Mays play. One day I'll be the one telling some kid about how great Barry Bonds was and to light up his eyes. I just hope people out there don't discredit his legendary status ![[Mad]](mad.gif)

First Off Barry Bonds is nowhere close to being the "best Baseball player of all times" I would take a Ted Williams or Micky Mantel of Barry anyday!!!!
You guys are right where Roids don't make you a better hitter, he does have a great eye or he would have never been a Pro. But you say he is still hitting the ball good and taking it to the warning track. Well Shit just about any major league guy can take it to the warning track. What the Roids do is take it over the track by just plain Muscleing the ball over the fence. I think the Bonds days as being a premier Sluger is over.
One More thing, I never said he sucks or is the worst. He needs to work on Mechanics now to get the ball into McCovy Cove again.

No, but he should (and probably does) already know that since the 1997 season, Bonds has always started off the year slowly. Bonds has said many times that his hitting doesn't come into full swing (no pun intended) until Mid-May or as late as June.
That reason, and that reason alone, is why people assume Bonds opted to take steroids. The Chronicle interviewed members of the Balco group and they said "Bonds was concerned about his hitting at an older age". Hence, he began using steroids. But that is all hearsay, who knows if it is true. Makes sense, but hasn't been proven.
Again, Bonds has started EVERY season slowly since 1997... and it gets worse every year because of his AGE. The man is 41 years old!!! Give him a break. He has had 3 knee surguries and now has bone chips in his elbow. The dude is older than 99% of the players right now and he is still THE most feared hitter in the game. ALbert Pujols is bombing on the NL right now... But that is because pitchers PITCH TO HIM ALL DAY! The fuckin dude hit 3 in ONE GAME THE OTHER DAY!!! Pitch that way to Bonds, and he WILL get his swing back, he WILL hit the ball, and it WILL go over the fence enough times to break Ruths record. An interesting side note: 2 years ago, ESPN recorded Bonds' swing with a high-speed camera. Upon further analysis, it was noted that his bat-speed is far quicker than any other player in the leauge and his hand eye coordination is impeccable. By doing simple math (according to ESPN) Bonds unique talents allow him a few tenths MORE time to see the ball and therefore, hit that son of a bitch so much better. The man is great. Period.
Bonds is in the top 5 ALL TIME GREATEST players to ever play the game of Baseball.

Matt,
6 for 28 means he got 6 hits and got out 22 times. Walks do not count as official at bats. He has something like 42 plate apperances with 11 or 12 walks and got hit by a pitch on top of those 28 hits/outs...

Barry Bonds is the greatest 5 tool player the game has ever seen. A 500+ homerun hitter with 500+ stolen bases and 8 gold gloves with a career .300 average? How could you not take someone like that? I would also like to throw in that the only 100+ strikeout season he ever had was his rookie season. He has phenomenal pitch awareness.
Ted Williams was a great, great hitter...but he didn't carry the 5 tools that Barry did.
Mickey Mantle was a great hitter too and a fine defensive player. Did he put it all together into a 5 tool player??? No.
The closest player that came to the potential of Barry Bonds is Willie Mays.
You guys should really sit down and appreciate every Barry has done. It really is amazing.
