Thank God for BALCO!

[Freepdonia]

There was no other choice. It had to be him (unless there was ironclad proof that he was using steroids).

[rightinthemiddle]

The REAL ballplayers finished third, fourth and fifth.

Pujos, Rolen and Edmonds. Hard-nosed players.

Also voted Player of the year by the players.

[Spok]

They must've counted the times he slugged his wife.

Why was it when McGuire was setting the home run record, all of the pundits said that the player had to be on a team that made the playoffs, but when the Giants don't make it to the playoffs, they still pick Bonds, even with the steroid cloud over his head.

[TommyDale]

If Bonds is not really deserving, then why do the other teams
never pitch to him, and only walk him?

[UseYourHead]

And that is what is wrong with baseball. Bonds is the most arrogant, selfish man on the face of this earth. Ask any player who has ever gotten to know him. Sheffield found that out. Sure, he is a tremendous player but that all flushes down the toilet in my book when he blows off fans and teammates and cops an attitude in every game he plays. His bad attitude at the plate and his critical attitude about his teammates is overwhelmingly obvious on the TV screen. If he was a better human, he would have already broken Hank's record but nobody wants a jackass like that at the top of the records. I hope he gets walked for every at bat next year.

I see MLB is still ignoring his blantant steroid use too.

Barry Bonds is going to break the all time career home runs record, too. He's only 53 away from Bad Henry, and even if he loses not just one step but two he ought to be able to hit that many shots in two years.

Bonds will be the single season home run record holder, and the career home run record holder. He's got a good shot at breaking Rickey Henderson's all time run record, too. His career average is high-- it's .300 right now. (Yes, some will claim that OBP + Slugging is the more telling stat, but Bonds is Olympian there too.)

The short of it is that Bonds will likely retire being hailed as the greatest player ever to play baseball. Steroids or no steroids, that's freakin' impressive.

Thanks to steroids...

[GOP_Raider]

WAY TO GO BARRY!

GIANTS in '05!

[dead]

Does his "pharmacist" get an assist?

[Finalapproach29er]

A steriod fraud,like the Governor. IMO

[CARDINALRULES]

Gee, I thought to win the MVP , you had to lead your team to the playoffs.

Well that was everyone was saying the last 3 seasons anyways.

What a crock.

[soundandvision]

Better break out the asterisk...

[montag813]

*Barry Bonds

[Rocket1968]

Better living through chemistry!

[rcocean]

Gee the oldest player ever to be MVP. I wonder why?

I wonder why every other Great player in baseball saw he's slugging percentage decline after 35, while BB's went up.

Gee, I wonder why?
