Trainer: Bonds Used Steroids in '03


Recommended Posts

He is a classy guy, to be honest.  He didn't really want to pass Willie Mays in the all-time homerun list.  Goes to show you what kind of guy he is.

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAA...

This is the same guy who basically said Babe Ruth is way too overrated and also said he's going to whipe Babe Ruth out of the record books. Very classy, indeed! :laugh:

Pedro also said Babe Ruth is overrated and that he would strike him out if he came out of his grave.  Your point?

HAHAHA! And since when has Pedro been classy? :laugh:

Just because someone else does it doesn't make it classy.

That's easy.  They've both been playing like that their whole careers.  Bonds never hits close to 50 home runs, and all of a sudden, he's hitting 70's and 60's home runs in his mid 30's.

Clemens and Johnson have been consistent in their entire careers.

So hitting mid 30s-40s in home runs the past 12 years doesn't count? It's hardly suddenly, as you claim. Bond's has broke 50 homeruns once in his career.

You people are looking to villify him on absolutely nothing.

So he used to be cocky when he was younger...who the hell cares. People change. I find it humourous that when you have nothing else to get him with, it always comes back to "well he was a prick 10 years ago".:rolleyes:s:

How do you expect him to hit 60 when he gets walked 2/3 of the time? :unsure:

The year after barry hit 73 home runs he walked only 27 more times than he did the year before. The next? He walked 29 times less than his 'record' year. This year? 55 times more.

So...in his record breaking year, he hit 1 home run every 6.52 at bats. Next year? 1 per 8.76 at bats. 8.66 the next, and this year, 8.28.

As you can see, the walks have nothing to do with it.

Hey buddy, I think you should take your own advice about what you just said.  :rolleyes:

And according to you, what did I just say?

The next? He walked 29 times less than his 'record' year. This year? 55 times more.

He actually walked almost 100 times more this year than last.

    • I think the car analogy is more this: Left hand drive, basic commands on the left side of the infotainment screen. Right hand drive, basic commands on the right side of the infotainment screen. Granted, you're not swapping between the two often so it's doesn't really work. But it's to do with the proximity of you (your mouse, or the driver) to the controls.
    • I mean, the old one was broken and so stupidly complex for many users, so I don't see that as a feasible option. A context menu needs to be simple to use, and for me the Windows 11 style actually worked really well for me, and many others. I used to have to scroll the damn context menu just to get to "file properties" in Windows 10. That was not a good experience, and I'm sure you'd agree. What they're trying to do is make it the best of both worlds, as clearly you'd prefer the Win10 style. I'm curious how they're going to do this.
    • The "Show more options" has its place, as does the simpler context menu, but it should perhaps be a separate fly-out rather than relaunching the entire, old context menu. The old context menu was getting absurd in Windows 10. Often I'd have to make the context menu scroll just to get to "File properties" on my old laptop. Even without much installed, the amount of items was just too much. It's a context menu, not a "do all" menu. Making it configurable is fraught with challenges too, so I'm interested to see how Microsoft tackles this one.
    • I don't hate the new menus, I am not a fan of the lack of features and how they went live when they clearly are not complete. The menu itself presents much better than the previous - but what's lacking (IMO) is: 1) Any kind of automated manipulation such as: "this goes on the new menu because you use this feature more often on this filetype" "this is rarely used and will fall back to the old menu" 2) Any kind of user manipulation such as: "a UI to add/remove/order items to the new menu"
