Barry Bonds (Juiced Merge)

[MrsB]

Is it true that Bonds' asterisk will be pumping iron?
Oh My!

Well, if you are going to say "these people are on steroids" a couple years after everyone is off of them then you are really opening yourself up for lawsuits. Not only that, he made one comment and A-Rods lawyers are already on his ass, I think the A-Rod juice will probably be more along the lines of he lives at whore houses and has 7 wives in 4 different countries.[/quote]

After reading the following article on A-Rod you could be right:

Report: Alex Rodriguez 'Likes the She-Male, Muscular Type'

See article: Report: Alex Rodriguez 'Likes the She-Male, Muscular Type' - Sports Blog - The FanHouse

A recent infatuation of A-Rod ...

Those are some arms on that blonde - not a hottie ..

I'll bet Canseco is really a trustworthy source. Really. Trustworthy.

He is so far......much more trustworthy than your homerun champ.

They are all on the "juice"!

 

[Best Buckeye]

They are all on the "juice"!

Then they should all be kicked out of baseball for breaking the rules , or at least have any records vacated

 

[Taosman]

It would seem you have to be really stupid to get caught "juicin"!

 

[Taosman]

Got Mi......Juice?

 

[BuckeyeNation27]

Telling jokes.....so easy a caveman can do it.

Or not.

Taxes on Ball

"It's an expensive catch," said John Barrie, a tax lawyer with Bryan Cave LLP in New York who grew up watching the Giants play at Candlestick Park. "Once he took possession of the ball and it was his ball, it was income to him based on its value as of yesterday,"
That would instantly put Murphy, a college student from Queens, in the highest tax bracket for individual income, where he would face a tax rate of about 35 percent, or about $210,000 on a $600,000 ball.

Unless he is definatly selling it that seems outragous to me.$600,000 to catch a Freaking baseball!

I am curious about what he could have, I mean if he had something about A-Rod one would think he would have put it into his last book since you're talking about what is one of the best players in the game who is on one of the more popular MLB teams. Speculate all you want, but if he has something I don't think it's going to be as eye-opening as his first book.

It could be just as simple as he didn't have the info at the time of the first book. Now since he has tons of free time he can hunt for as much dirt as possible. Also while he is now blacklisted from baseball I would not be surprised if people that want to out other players would use him as their outlet so they do not suffer the same fate as Canseco.

I wish the Indians would start cheating a little better.

Who says they didn't? Remember Grimsley was on our team during the 90s. Who doesn't think Belle had some juice running through his veins when he flexed his biceps against the Red Sox??? Also anyone remember how skinny Jim Thome was in the minors and when he first came up? Then he became as huge as Mark McGwire? I would not be surprised if the 90s Indians run was not helped by steroids.

Today I heard that Selig let Giambi off with no fine or penalty in regards to his admitted use of steroids, citing his testifying about the practice and charitable donations of about 1 mill. ( he has made about 126 mill from the yankees)
So as far as I am concerned MLB has no character and is a non entity. I now reverse my stand and say that Bonds records should count, and everyone else of those steroids using, cheating players. If they are not going to hold the players in the league accountable then I have no interest in MLB at all. Go Ahead and let Rose into the Hall too It has been cheapened to where it matters non at all.

GO BUCKS

Meet Jonathan Lee Riches. The federal prisoner/habitual litigant recently scored headlines with his insane $63 billion lawsuit against Michael Vick (who allegedly stole Riches's dogs, sold them on eBay, and used the proceeds to buy weapons from the Iranian government). Riches, who is doing a decade in prison for fraud, is at it again, this time filing a loony--though quite funny--complaint again Barry Bonds, baseball commissioner Bud Selig, and Hank Aaron's bat.
In his lawsuit, Riches, pictured in the below mug shot, weaves an intricate conspiracy theory involving television ratings, steroids, the cracking of the Liberty Bell, Colombian narco-terrorists, and secretly recorded conversations for which journalists Robert Novak and Judith Miller have transcripts.
A copy of the Bonds complaint can be found here. Riches's August 13 lawsuit, which he filed in U.S. District Court in Indiana, is the 17th federal complaint he has filed since January 2006. Imprisoned in South Carolina, Riches has filed his lawsuits in 15 separate federal jurisdictions, presumably moving state-to-state to avoid sanctions over the filing of frivolous actions. (5 pages)

This is a great read. Funny and sad and just amazing in its detail! Lots of time on this guy's hands. I like how he names Hank Aaron's bat as a "defendent."

Baseball notebook: Corporate types give Bonds no love, or money

Sunday, August 26, 2007 3:59 AM



Associated Press

Barry Bonds' smiling mug won't be gracing boxes of the "Breakfast of Champions" anytime soon.

Since breaking Hank Aaron's career home run record, there have been no "I'm going to Disneyland" moments for Bonds, no cereal box immortality.
"We simply have no plans at this point" to work with Bonds, Wheaties spokeswoman Tara Johnson said by e-mail.
The new home run king remains radioactive to corporate sponsors. A possible federal indictment for tax evasion and perjury, rumors of marital infidelity, alleged steroid use and an often combative relationship with the media are too much baggage for companies seeking an athlete to hawk their wares.
