Bonds hit a 435-foot home run, his 756th, off a pitch from Mike Bacsik of the Washington Nationals

The who?

Ok, Bonds breaks record....ok, great, good for him but wtf is this Washington Nationals shit?

[Zac]

756*

and the nationals are the Montreal Expos relocated

[Greg]

fuck, I hate bonds and wish he would just die. I will be waiting for the day when A-Rod breaks his record because A-Rod is the shit.

[Gummy]

A-Rod sounds like a penis, but better than jail bonds.

Steroids FTW!

756*

yeah, some people are always going to question the record and doubt Bonds did it on his own.

Like Lou Gherig, I have been diagnosed with a terminal illness so rare that it has been named after me. What you see here in front of me is a pile of doctor's notes, mostly from my trainer Greg Anderson, who diagnosed me with “Barry Bonds' Disease” back in 1998. The symptoms include drowsiness (for which I was prescribed a powerful anti-narcolepsy stimulant), muscles that get progressively weaker with age (for which I was prescribed a cattle bulking agent), anger management issues (for which I was prescribed a mistress) and, finally, a massively swollen head, something that we have yet to get under control.

And yes, Barry Bonds' Disease is a terminal illness. That's right—I'm going to die. Greg has given me 40 years to live, meaning I might never get the chance to watch my grandchildren grow up, get married, give me great-grandchildren and then die. I never imagined the nightmare scenario of having my grandchildren outlive me, but that's the sort of unthinkable future that I'm facing with Barry Bonds' Disease.

I blame you, the media. Somehow.

Because you didn't want to see a black man break Hank Aaron's record, you have made my family's life a living hell. Yesterday, my son and I were playing Scrabble and he challenged the word “Barry” because he said it was a proper noun. Because of you, my son can't stand to see a black man win, either. And now he's got all of Barry Bonds' Scrabble words written backwards across his face from where you made me slam his head down into the Scrabble board.

By now, I'm used to the media's dirty tricks. You guys have torn powerful black men down since the beginning of time. You didn't like Malcolm X when he was alive, did you? The critics weren't so kind to Mr. T during the A-Team days. When Jesus walked the Earth, the newspapers couldn't believe that he was turning water into wine without the help of steroids. Well now, Jesus and Malcolm X are dead and it's time to crucify Barry Bonds.

Oh, now look at that. Everyone get your cameras over here. I hope you're happy, you've made my son cry. In front of millions and millions of people, my son is crying like a weak coward.

To answer your question, he is not crying because I knocked his mother unconscious to emphasize my point about Malcolm X. He is crying because you refuse to tell his father's story. You continue to focus on the negatives instead of the fact that I am trying to rescue you from Hank Aaron's Stalin-like rein over the career home run record, Barry Bonds' Disease and all. I guess he'll just have to read the truth about his father in the record books, or alternatively when they finally get around to writing the rest of the Bible. Then who'll have the last laugh?

[Zac]

It's fairly obvious that he used something

[goku2057]

Yeah, but without hard evidence, nothing can be done. You're guilty until proven innocent in America, right?

I loathe Barry Bonds.

[Coded-Dude]

and A-Rod is such a stand up guy.......pfffffffffffffffft(greedy prick).

Baseball is a joke these days(and has been for some time)

Since 1994. The big baseball players strike. I was a huge fan up until that season. I've never watched a game since.

[Zac]

Baseball is doing pretty well now. There's still some problems though.
Kansas City, Pittsburgh, Milwaukee until this year, Washington all haven't even been close to competitive for a long time and won't because they won't spend the money. The Yankees outfield makes more than the whole Tampa Bay team.

Yeah, but when has Milwaukee ever been competitive?

:p

[Jonny Royal]

Very good Barry. I am a giants fan. get over it

[dysury]

Barry Bonds looks like he has Down's Syndrome in that picture.

[Zac]

Milwaukee won it all in 82 or something

[WolfmanNCSU]

757 now, as Barry hits another one.

[bobo_ess]

barry bonds is the home run steward, waiting for the TRUE king to return to his throne

[Cream Filling]

any player who breaks any kind of record is going to be under suspicion now
because of cheating dumbfucks who are ruining the sport.

[Fillibuster]

I can't stand him. It's not only because of the steroids (has there ever been anything as obvious since the OJ Simpson case?) its mostly because he's a prick. When he hit 755 and walked to first base; go f**k yourself. Yeah your real big and bad with your shriveled steroid nuts and your high girl voice. PS A-Rod isn't my favorite player Barry but he's gonna effin pwn your ass in the coming decade...

Barry Bonds is more of a prick than A-Rod could even ever wish to be.
Yeah, he makes a ton of cash, but he's the best player in the game, and the way players are paid nowadays, his contract isn't anything mindblowing or anything.

I hate Bonds.
1. For cheating. You can't say the guy hasn't done steroids.
HIS HEAD GREW ENORMOUSLY. I know guys can get bulky and stuff, but their heads don't grow. That's what HGH does.
2. For ruining the Pirates. They haven't had a winning season in 15 years, longest current streak in all 4 major sports.

[Zac]

Bonds didn't ruin the Pirates, they ruined themselves.

[Gilly]

Maybe when he left, there was a curse O.o

not really.
but he was part of that firesale w/ bobby bonilla and they haven't been the same since.

[Cream Filling]

him and A-Rod are both jerkoffs as fara as I'm concerned.
and curses are used as an excuse when a team chokes over and over again.
I'm looking at you Red Sox-up-until-a-few-years-ago!
