Tired of Barry Bonds?
Question:So is everyone else just as tired as i am with barry bonds. I was watching OTL on espn last week and they whip out that poll about how white people don't want barry bonds to break the record and african americans do. Is there a reason why in america we always have to make it a race issue? can't we go 5 seconds without having the race card thrown out there when two racial groups disagree, it must be the end of the world completely when we do.
secondly, if so many major leaguers disagree with what bonds "did". Why pitch to him? I don't think it makes them look bad, they are keeping someone who cheated away from something that isn't theres.

Do you think Barry Bonds deserves to be in the Hall of Fame?
I'm tired of hearing people whine about Barry Bonds, yes. I'm looking forward to watching him break the record though. He's been a great baseball player since the 80s and I've watched his entire career. It'll be cool to watch him break the record. I'm white by the way. Bonds just hit 745 against my Mets, d'oh! Anyway, it sucks that they make it a race issue, but there's still plenty of racism in our country. It wouldn't surprise me if there are some white people out there that don't want him to break the record simply because of racism. I doubt it's a high percentage though.yeah, i'm tired of barry bonds, i know this is the most coveted record in baseball, but the fact of his iledged doping, this has become more a positive thing for barry, everybody in the world knows who he is now
innocent until proven guilty
ESPN biased against nonpopular teams?
I am so tired of hearing about him going to break a record i got so tired of him i stop watching baseball but i like the mets to win the world seriesI'm white and don't care who holds the record as long as they got there honestly.
I think there isn't enough attention being paid to the players that we aren't hearing about. Palmeiro, Sosa, McGwire, and all others are living under the media radar only because they aren't approaching a record.
Don't get me wrong, Bonds deserves all the criticism he gets. It's just not being put upon the others that need to be out in the open.
If Bonds keeps it up where does that leave the Giants next season?
Here is the thing about Bonds. From a DIE HARD GIANTS FAN.We will love him untill he retires he has erand that!
The race issuie will never go away other wise the over paid sports writers in the world would have nothing for slow news days.
Will the mets vs phillys game be cancelled tonight in ny?
I absolutely don't care about him. When he breaks the HR record, so what? He's juiced, and the record won't be legitimate.At least Aaron did it legitimately, and with class. Bonds is an @sshole.
So where does that leave the Non-white and non-african american fans?? I could care less if he breaks the record. Records were meant to be broken. Just like someone, years from now, will break his record. Ignorance has become more and more common these days. To most people, baseball is more of a white-mans sport,and because a black man is about to break a record, it gives them an excuse to bring race into it. The way things are looking, a hispanic player may break a record because of the incline in hispanic players in the league. When that happens, people will bring race back into the picture. Baseball used to be a game people like to watch, but get more and more side-tracked with the whole racial thing. I see players as exactly as they are: players. Could care less if they are white, black, asian, hispanic. A good player is a good player, no matter the color. Come on now, we all bleed the same 'color'.red.
DoesManny Ramirez have Myspace?
Diehard Cardinals fan here. I'm enjoy every minute of this. Even tho I suspect Bonds of juicing, he is doing something we may only see once in a life time. It takes dedication and consistency to achieve what he is doing right now. I give him all the credit he deserves. As for steroids, I will be convinced when there is evidence. Not just heresay or "leaked" info that nobody can ever proove. To tarnish a career like that, it takes more than just opinions and second guessing.Sure, a lot of people suspect MLB of fixing games, shaving scores. But until there is evidence, it is just second guessing and shouldnt be taken seriously.
Heck, Armstrong got caught red handed with performance drugs, even tested positive. Still some people dont think he cheated. Tell me if this is not favorism.
I can not get L.A.angels in my 'scoreboard.WHY?
What took you so long?As far as I'm concerned, his stats end with the end of the '98 season, before he decided that destroying his body was worth anything in baseball.
Bonds has always been a miserable SOB to the media and fans. He made his bed and he has to lie in it. It has nothing to do with race.
Finally! Someone that has proof Barry Bonds cheated! Can I see your evidence please? Didn't think so! I have an idea for you. Why don't you climb out from under the rock you've been living and face reality. based on the level of ignorance towards Mr. Bonds I'm going to assume that you are probably a 12 year old boy who listens to what his racist father spew negative comments about Bonds for no other reason than the color of his skin so therefore you, well, like father like son, you get the point. The fact of the matter is that Bonds HAS NEVER BEEN CAUGHT OR CONVICTED OF DOING ANYTHING ILLEGAL. Face it. He is the BEST baseball player you WILL EVER SEE!
No.
What is the record for an mlb pitcher and who holds it?
First of all you have no proof Bonds cheated!That would be like me calling you a child molester, I have no proof you are, but because I think you are, sports1234.com should ban you from asking question!
Second of all, it is racist! If you're tired of Bonds then why did you ask a racist question??
What do you think about World Series games being scheduled for November?
I'm so sick of this whole race issue with Bonds...personally I don't think anyone in the U.S.A. can really say anything about race considering 99.9% of us are mixed in some way shape or form, so if it's a color thing heck I still haven't see a BLACK or WHITE man in my 32 years, I v'e seen dark brown, brown, light brown, tan, yellowish tan, redish tan, even a few pinkish(albino)..So I don't think that the alligations were based on color or skin color , O'ya that's right he used steroids and did'nt know about putting the in HIS own body.If ya cheat at anything there will come a time when you have to pay the piper..I hope his time is very very soon..I hate Bonds
If he wasn't black he would already be kicked out of MLB.
