Re: Official Barry Bonds Thread

Nice pitching Springer

Actually, not nice pitching. There's no room for such obvious clownery in baseball when you're heaving a 90 MPH ball at a person's body. I don't care whether it's Bonds or Stalin. Hopefully this turd gets suspended for 10+ games. I'm not going to attempt to psychoanalyze what the guy was thinking, but it is plainly obvious that he was trying to drill Bonds above the belt. No room for that in baseball.

*Edit* Just saw the highlight on BBTN. Phil Garner should also be suspended 5+ games for this bush league crap. This was one of the scummier things I've seen in baseball since Lou Piniella was last managing. There doesn't appear to be any reasoning for this beaning of Bonds other than a) Houston was getting the living crap beaten out of them and b) it's Bonds. BTW, any of those alleged Houston "fans" that were uproariously cheering when Bonds got drilled should be ashamed of themselves. F'n inbred mutant creeps. Clearly, they are not baseball fans, but are more interested in bloodsport, macabre, WWF-esque drama. Damn, this whole thing pisses me off as a baseball fan.

I thought I heard some baseball fans say punking him is better than giving him the base on balls.

I agreed with ya until that part. Stereoytyping a group of people like that....is just about as bushleague as what Springer did.

I agree 100%...if anything, he probably got some people to lessen their hatred of Bonds if he's being dealt with like that. Stupid middle reliever...

Yes that was stupid and people that clap to that are stupid too! That is just wrong, I don't care if you like Bonds or not. But to accept what that pitcher did is just plain wrong! The sad thing is this is not over. The Giants will do something. They would have done something last night, but Bonds told Wright to just keep focus and don't worry about it!

What did he do? I think he beamed him but im not sure.

Re: Official Barry Bonds Thread

Criticize Springer and Houston all you want, but the bottom line is no one got hurt and the fans loved it.

Honestly, if he was trying to bean Bonds, how the hell did he miss that dome?

So it's okay to throw at players intentionally just as long as no one gets hurt?

Um, huh? Never said I ageed with any of it. Just saying that it got everyone's panties up in a bunch but nothing happened. And that Bonds has a ginormous cranium.
