Somebody feed Barry Bonds

[Rusty Shackleford]

Barry Bonds is much skinnier now than in his later playing days, more resembling the svelte slugger of his Pittsburgh Pirates days than the bulging beast of his SF Giants days. But I'm sure that has nothing to do with him no longer needing to cycle steroids since he's no longer an MLB player. Nah, he's clean. Always was...

Wonder if he lost some of his ego

He's seriously into his bike riding these days, training daily.

In fairness, I think that the argument has advanced from, "Did he do it?" to "Do we care?"

 

[bigpern23]

The really shocking part of that picture is that he's smiling.

 

[Riptide]

His head is still fat. Literally, too.

Yep. And every fan base that had a good laugh at Bonds' and the Giants' denial has subsequently gotten to confront its own feelings. Kind of funny to look back on the indignation of Milwaukee fans in particular, who felt they were protecting Hank Aaron's good name.

Good lord is that even him?!?!

This.

 

[MileHigh]

Yeah, I wouldn't be smiling if I pedaled up Independence Pass. That sucker's a brute.

 

[Point of Order]

At least he chose a sport where he could blend in.

 

[Versatile]

Barry Bonds: Stopped doping, started cycling.

If losing his ego was what was responsible for his weight loss, he'd look like Christian Bale in "The Machinist."

That was a great line.
