Re: Whats in the bat, Sammy?

I suppose Bonds isn't on steroids too right?

Ask anybody that know about bodybuilding and weight traning, for Bonds to put on the weight that he did, at the age he did, in the short time that he did, is almost impossible.

Bonds is as much of a scumbag as Sammy if he corked his bat. And McGwire, I bet he never used anthing to enhance his performance either.

Let's look at the real problem in baseball, poor pitching and too many teams. When we get rid of a few teams and get solid pitching through the league, HRs will go down.

Re: Whats in the bat, Sammy?

I also doubt that he used a corked bat 'all the time' it would have been found out by now, I think he fell into temptation with this slump and all.
in any case, even if he's telling the truth he deserves very, very much of these

I use a 33 1/2 inch 28 1/2 oz. bat. when I pick up a 30 oz. bat, it feels heavy. A corked bat is allot lighter than a normal bat. you would be able to tell right when you picked it up.

Yeah, but that's 5 oz. or 1/3 of a lb... that's a fairly big difference.. I use a 34 oz bat, and most of the guys on my team use 33's... you really can't tell just my holding them, you gotta read the knob or barrel sometimes.

<hr /></blockquote>

it's only an 1 1/2 oz. difference between a 28 1/2 oz and 30 oz. Either way I don't think Sosa used it all the time, maybe because he was in a slump? But he did know.

You're an idiot. How can you start in on the "well Bonds is on steroids" thing 'cuz Sosa got busted? What the hell? Bonds is the COMPLETE OPPOSITE OF SOSA, think about it

Sosa- Blows kisses to the camera and showboats
Bonds- For the most part only talks to bay area media, stays quiet.

Sosa- Obsessed with home run records
Bonds- Doesn't care, Just wants a ring.

Sosa- Always swinging at pitches in the dirt
Bonds- Setting ungodly walk records

Sosa- simply put, not a very smart player, or individual
Bonds- When he does talk, it is usually something profound, not just funny

Sosa- "Please, everybody love me"
Bonds- "Leave me alone and let me play my game"

Now, if you prefer Sosa to Bonds, that's fine if that's your style. If you dislike them both, that's fine too. But to convict Bonds because Sosa is busted is just flat out wrong.

My bad... I missed that...

I don't believe all his homers are products of the equipment by any means... dude has got some sick bat speed, should've foreseen that bat'll crumble upon impact like that. If not now, at some point soon.

I would guess since you live in CA that you're bias to the fact. But you know at some point in time that this inccident would drag Bonds and McGuire in it. But I also think he made a good point. Just accept his statment as an opinion and not a fact.

BTW, even tho I live in Chicago I am in no way a Cubs or Sammy fan. I'm WhiSox. If anybody should be corked his bat, its big Frank.
