    So, did anybody ask Barry Balco when was the last time he took streroids? Used the cream or the clear? HGH?

    ;D

    Someone asked him a question something along the lines of who Bonds thought was the greatest HR hitter when he was growing up. Bonds said something like "Frank Robinson was pretty fucking good."

    That sort of talk will deeply confuse some of the people on this board. Carry on.

    He wouldn't sign the ball.

    I'll go out on a limb and say Will Ohman coughs up No. 714 tomorrow night in San Francisco and Glendon Rusch serves up 715 on Wednesday.

    Yeah, baby! No. 713! Of course, I missed it while I was getting something out of the freezer, so that sucked.

    I also heard the Philly stadium people sat down with some of the fans before the series to ask them not to make fools of themselves during the games. It went something like this:

    Stadium crew: "So, why don't youse guys leave Barry alone?"

    Fans: "He uses steroids. Everyone knows it."

    Stadium crew: "So are you going to chant stupid shit when he bats?"

    Fans: "Of course. He uses steroids. Everyone knows it."

    Stadium crew: "Why don't you help us out and promote the park? Maybe you could cheer for the pizza or something?"

    Fans: "We didn't pay so we could praise your pepperoni."

    Stadium crew: "Just try it. All we are saying: Give pizza chants."

    Bonds passes Babe Ruth, then retires before having to take another drug test.

    Or Bonds doesn't hit No. 714 and retires after this year. Hey, one can dream.

    Why isn't Barry Balco being randonmly tested every week? The admission of using "flaxseed oil" and "linament" is enough cause for MLB to test him as often as it wishes.

    In fact, there should be a guy in the Giants lockerroom Every day asking him to pee into a cup. EVERY FUCKING DAY!
    and Juicin' Giambi, too.

    Yeah but he took a picture with the guy; that's better than a stupid signature.

    Bonds posed with the guy so his reality TV crew could shoot video of them. He wouldn't sign the ball, but as soon as he walked away, the video crew handed the fan a release for the show. Bonds wouldn't sign, but the fan had to. This is what we call "America."

    Enough about this drug-testing bullshit. If I wanted to think about peeing into a cup, I'd drink some apple juice and fire it up.

    The man is on the verge of No. 714. Will he play tonight? Will he get it tonight? Don't you hear that thought echoing in that head of yours? No, don't give me that Mr. Edgar Friendly shit. It's Bonds, tying Ruth's record, and you damn well know it.
