BobbyRoberto: you're right, i'm not there. but it seems a little too coincidental that he gets "back spasms" amidst the worst slump of his career and when his team can't buy a win. again, i have no problem with him doing poorly right now, it's normal for everyone to go through things like this, but he's acting like a primadonna. he's made it clear though that he's very frustrated with his team's performance, and back spasms seem like an easy way out. oh yeah, and comparing him to pujols and a-rod... come on, pujols is a chronic slow starter and we all know how a-rod has had trouble dealing with the transition to the bronx.
wrveres: ...good one. if i was trying to make light of these player's offseason antics, i'd say it. i was obviously talking about how mays and ruth would never cry like the little baby that bonds is when their teams aren't doing too hot and fake injuries. and what's so bad with the babe getting drunk every night. let his #'s speak for themself. at least he played in his games. maybe that's what bonds needs, but he probably knows the mixture of alcohol and potency of steroids in his system might kill him. or at least balco has told him that.
