I always believed he put up better numbers than this. Must have been focused on his peak. Anyway, I did a timeline on him just because...

Born: December 21, 1960

1979: Drafted by Cardinals in 1st Round (6th overall)

Debut: June 17, 1983 (Cardinals)

1985: One of five Cardinals to steal 30 bases

1985: Cards win Pennant (Lose World Series to the Royals)

1987: Traded to Pirates

1988-1992: Won five straight Gold Gloves

1990-1992: Pirates win three straight Division titles, but lose the NLCS each time

I'm not sure what you wrote, can't you sum it up. I just thought it was funny.

1992: Played in the NLCS because Barry Bonds was on his team.

 

[Mitchrapp]

But he was right. Sometimes you listen to other folks. As usual though Barry handled it with class.

 

[mattym]

As opposed to the classiness of publicly ripping the guy who was the sole reason you were playing in the game in the first place?

I wonder--did Slick ever rip Jose Lind, whose error was by far reason number one that the inning got away from Pittsburgh?

And I'm not much of a baseball historian--did Ty Cobb ever do something this bad when he was blowing horse cock in the postseason and never winning a championship?

We know he wasn't yelling at any black leftfielders, that's for damn sure...

Matty's buttocks must be sore from all that Bonds love he is receiving from behind...

 

[Thumb]

Bonds buttocks are just as sore from all the injections...his ass probably looks like the surface of the moon.

 

[mattym]

Ty, I was gonna ask you if Bonds killed your golden retriever puppy or something.

 

[mattym]

And Gary Sheffield's buttocks were sore from all the injections while he was hitting homers for the Tigers in 2007 and 2008.

And Thumb, you couldn't have cared less.

And Thumb, you couldn't have cared less.

Few people do as much bitching about players using PED's than I do, and I always thought Sheff was an asshole, so don't tell me whether or not I could have cared less, the last thing I would ever want is someone tainting a team I care a lot about with PED use.

Just because you want to smoke Barry Bond's pole and pretend nothing happened does not mean the rest of us do.
