^^^exactly, this isnt like betting on baseball....people think homeruns are STRICTLY power...its not...look at douche bags like Steve Finley whos like 5 10 and 180 pounds when wet, and he hit 36 homers or something. baseball talk is always spewed and thrown around by people who dont know anything about it. If he was bulking, regardless, like it was said before, he should be less mobile.
Look at someone like McGwire, and how he tapered off...he had one fantastic year out of like, the last eight of his career, and he was always riddled with injury. Bonds has stayed healthy, and has only GOTTEN BETTER. McGwire had such a long ass 3/4 swing, where he could only hit inside pitches, and anyone with gas would blow the ball right past him. Im not saying bonds didnt use any sort of a supplement, but look at the bigger picture. its like, even Jim Rome criticized the media for not congratulaing Bonds enough. 700 home runs????? WHAT THE FUCK?!!?!?!? 700... HOME RUNS...and the guy probably has 2-3 more good years in him! thats good! he MIGHT, slightly, be able to play 4! who knows? any true baseball fan might not like the steroid use, but trust me, i'd much rather watch Bonds go for the record then someone like A-Rod or Pujols or Lance Berkman try to do it.
Bonds scares not just pitchers, but WHOLE teams, and what angers ME is that baseball has become so fucking FOCUSED on steroid use and home runs, its like...what happened to fucking strategy? what happened to not letting one person run the game (Bonds)? yeah, walk him...but thats fucking bullshit too. the giants are like, the 5th largest crowd drawer for away games, and its ONLY b/c of Bonds.
the big problem here, what im saying is, is that people accept walking bonds, not playing the game it should be, and focusing on a stupid problem thats been building up for like, 5 years. GET OVER IT!
