PLAYERS: Barry Bonds

As the Broncos get set to take the stage on Monday night, the rest of the NFL looks to play up to the Patriots' standards. While much of the sporting world is talking about Barry Bonds or A-Rod and the Yankees, I'm going to crank out the NFL's week 11 rankings with commentary:

Is The Anger Towards Bonds Racial?

You've got to see this. There's a point to what they saying; however, I think issue with Barry Bonds deals with more of his public persona over the years, he breaking Hank's record, as well as he lying the to Feds. Even ESPN has CHARLES BARKLEY on this! I agree with Barkley 100% on this...

Longhorns Popping a Little White Pill

No one knows Longhorn football better than Bevo Sports. Check this out. "To combat heat related issues, the Texas Longhorns have now started giving their athletes a little white pill. No, not the same pill Barry Bonds takes, but actually a tiny little electronic device that players can ingest. This allows trainers to get internal body temperature readings to insure players...

Popularity Becoming Expensive for Chelsea's Didier Drogba

"One Chelsea insider claimed Drogba visits the club shop up to 10 times a week and on one occasion walked out of the store with 40 shirts priced at approximately £45 each, setting him back £1,800." Maybe this guy's learned how to have a second job from the likes of Barry Bonds and Pete Rose. I hope we don't find some mysterious person selling tons of signed...

I hope Sugar Shane Mosley was for real

Mosley's stock is arguably at an all-time high, and if there were any doubts about his standing amongst the all-time greats, his knockout of Antonio Margarito erased them all. I felt there was something fishy back in the early part of the decade when Barry Bonds was setting personal and all-time homerun records despite being in his late 30's.I hope that isn't the case...

Hey Thursday, Shut Up

For some reason I don't even care that Pay-Rod is back with the Yankees. And I don't even care that Barry Bonds was indicted. Yawn. So what? Somebody wake me up when they take him to jail. 275 Million Dollars for ten years. That is the craziest thing I have ever heard in my life. [...]

Cards Pass on Bonds

There were confirmed reports from Cardinals camp today that manager Tony La Russa was quietly lobbying for Barry Bonds.  Spring Training games start this week and the home run king still remains a free agent.  There has been little interest in the 43 year old slugger, as an investigation continues ...

Giants Follow Through on Bonds Gear

Shortly before the season began, the San Francisco Chronicle called out the Giants for seemingly removing anything and everything related to Barry Bonds in and around AT&T Park. It seemed odd, considering the Giants coddled and celebrated the slugger along every step of his journey. The Giants respon...

NHL Reports Increase in Merchandise Sales for Black Friday and Monday

There may be a recession, but the National Hockey League didn't feel its effects on the first major shopping days of the Holiday season. The NHL reports that online sales, through shop.nhl.com were up 67 percent from Black Friday and up 10 percent for Black Monday from this time last year. Top selling items, so far for the league, include third jerseys by the Flyers, Bruins...

Clemens' legacy is shot down the drain

With the revelation that Roger Clemens has been implicated in the Mitchell Report, his Hall of Fame legacy is pretty much shot down the tubes. You have to put Clemens right there with cheating slime like Barry Bonds and Mark McGwire. If you can't put McGwire or Bonds in the Hall of Fame, you can't put Clemens there, either.

Sell Stock In Boras Corp?

You probably missed it, but the Oregionian had a very humorous piece last week which aimed to get in the mind of Scott Boras [Deep thoughts with Scott Boras]. This was one of his generated thoughts: Indicted? Thank you, Barry. Ain't nobody going to have the time to pile on ol' Scott now. Indicted. Indicted. Indicted. ESPN's going to slug this baby...

What A Summer!!!

When people think of summer, people think of the beach, vacations and baseball. That is before this summer. This one has been one for the ages, and to be honest, it has been a disgrace to all sports fans. For the longest time Barry Bonds and his homerun chase ruled the summer, and just when it looked like we were in the clear as that record breaking homerun fell into Matt Murphy...

Izzo Tied To BALCO Investigation

Larry Izzo: New England Patriots special teams guru Larry Izzo has been called to testify in the government’s case against Barry Bonds. Izzo will testify that Bonds’s trainer Greg Anderson gave him PED’s to use for himself. There was no comment from the Patriots or the NFL about Izzo’s ...

NEWS AND NOTES

--Friday's Backyard Brawl will probably be your last chance to watch Shady McCoy play at Heinz Field (for Pitt, that is). [PG]--Congrats to my W&J Presidents, 35-21 winners in their first-round playoff game against Christopher Newport, which is either a school or one singular guy who somehow made it into the D-3 playoffs. [Washjeff.edu]--Here's the highly-anticipated...

A-Rod's Press Conference Puts Saga to an End ... For Me

As I watched Alex Rodriguez choke back tears and struggle through Tuesday's press conference at George M. Steinbrenner field, I couldn't help but believe him. But maybe that's just who am I ... perhaps I am too quick to forgive.Whether it's Barry Bonds, Roger Clemens, Brian McNamee or even Jose Canseco, I've been somewhat quick to offer up the benefit of the...
