I guess all the pressure is getting to be too much for that 'hot shot' Barry Bonds, who's a homer shy of tying Babe Ruth. You know a player is selfish and doesn't deserve to be honored when he refuses to autograph one freaking baseball for a fan who caught his 713th homerun ball. However, Bonds wanted the fan to sign a release form to use the photo of the two together on his show, "Bonds on Bonds" on ESPN. What a load of bull shit!
If Barry thought fans hate him because of his race he's only partially right. They think he's a jerk, asshole, bigot, selfish turd, and not to mention fat head. That doesn't cover all the names, but it's pretty close. The show on ESPN might as well be called, "Bonds On Crack" for all most fans care. The title would be more befitting to his attitude and demeanor. Lack of class is not a good thing for any Major League player especially big stars and sports icons.
When Bonds does break the historic homerun mark set by the Babe he still won't ever measure up to the Hall of Famer's legendary status. Everyone remembers Ruth as a clossial homerun hitter, one of the best of all-time. Fans and the sports community won't reflect on Bond's achievements the same way. He's turned too many people against him and has shown his true colors. Barring a clean steroids investigation (yeah, right! slim chance of that happening)his records and statistics may actually have merit and be worthy of celebration. I don't see a glorious future for the San Francisco slugger.
