Poll question: When will Barry Bonds break the all-time home run record. |
|
He is now 11 away from tying and 12 from breaking the record set by Henry Aaron of 755 in a career?

As soon as No. 756 splashes down (assuming he's at home), it'll be 756*.

The Giants have a home stand June 8-13.
Appropriately, they're interleague games.
Two. (clap) Two. (clap) Two shams in one.

8. ROID RAGE!!!! RARGGGGH! |
|
Overcome with Roid Rage, Barry Bonds will tear the head off a reporter at a press conference befor ripping Jose Canseco's throat out with his teeth. This will probably happen sometime around July 18th. He will be imprisoned for life shortly after.

9. Actually, roid rage has never been proven as a cause/condition |
|
in cases like meth, coke, etc have. It'd be interesting to see that play out in the courts as his defense.

10. Well, he'll try and use it as an excuse. |
|
But everyone will know that Bonds was merely trying to silence Canseco. Using his teeth. He'll go down, and hard.

12. Exactly, which is why it'll be great to see |
|
Theory is that 'roid rage only exists as an exacerbation of your already present general violent assholery. In other words, you could juice Gandhi to the gills, and he'd not experience it. Now, a single low-dose test patch on Mike Tyson? Get behind the fence.

13. Interesting. Considering that Barry Bonds is a tremendous asshole. |
|
When his rage manifests himself, it'll be scary indeed. He may well destroy San Francisco with his atomic breath. Our only hope is to juice up Mike Tyson and send him into the fray.

Just a guess. I could care less. He is a piece of shit and he will always have a * next to his name.

Especially after 754. Few pitchers want the distinction of giving up one of "those" homers.
He's already walked 23 times in only 90 plate appearances. That's one-third of the Giants' total. They apparently aren't very patient.

15. Never. I hope one of two scenarios happen: |
|
1. He gets a career-threatening arm injury and is forced to retire, 3 runs away from breaking the record
2. The MLB consortium finally gets wise and raids his locker for steroids

19. Cheaters shouldn't be recognized |
|
and Bonds is a cheater. BB should never give him the honor that Hank Aaron EARNED. Unfortunately, it's all about money and hype, so while I voted "other" I know the powers that be in the commissioners office will indeed recognize this cheater for an accomplishment that he didn't earn. It's pisses me off. :mad:
