Actually I care...I'm glad he's retiring before his Juiced A$$ broke Hank AAron's Record. I would have hated to See Aaron's record beaten that way.

It's funny here in the bay area it's not that big a deal, he's not well liked here......and the SF Giant fans are the worst fair weather fans, all most as bad as 49ers fans.......Giants never would fill there old ball park, Candle Stick Park....the only time they would fill it is when the Dodgers came to town, and the place was filled with Blue and White, I say bye bye your cancerous attitude will not be missed in the club house.

Good. Great ball player who ruined his own legacy with his accused steroid use and miserable disposition. P.

When he was young and raw...I picked him to be a future great! When he came up in the Pirates organization. But as the years went by he just did not really pan out in Pittsburg! He goes to San Fran and all of a sudden the guy is winning MVP awards and hitting homeruns at an unprecedented pace???? All over the age of 30?????  I am gonna go check some numbers!

You may want to check his hat size over the years.....For someone who wasn't juicing his Cranium sure did grow at an Unprecedented Pace.
I agree in His earlier years he was loaded w/ raw talent, but never reached full potential.....until his head started to expand
I wonder what his Godfather thinks of him

I heard he's gonna give it one more year then retire. Too bad. All that talent and he he's gonna leave under a cloud of questions.

Actually Larry,
I think he won national league mvp when he was in Pitsburg 1 or 2 times.
He left a small market team who no longer could afford him, for the big $$$ in San. Fran.
But he was a great player for pitsburg. though a LOT smaller and had a lot of speed.
The guy has Allways been a jerk !!!
It should be funny to seen how much he shrinks a few years from now after he retires and is no longer on the juice!!!
CHEATER!!!!

He blew in the post season for the Pirates...that I am sure of and the most homers he ever hit for them in a single season was 34. He had 2 MVP's with them. But how many players hit their prime at 37??????

There's only one thing that can make a head grow to that size at age 35 or so---taking HGH, Human Growth Hormone.

Bonds has admitted to using roids..Even tho he says he didnt know what they were at the time...  I really think there should be at least an asterick next to "records" noting that he was or is cheater..And to think if never used he still probally would have been considered a great player...Shame

I'm going where I'm going...

another words, if I can hit enough homers w/o the juice, I'll come back and break all the records. If I can't hit enough homers it means I couldn't do it w/o the juice and I don't want to put up with all those questions.
