    I talked to a guy who knows an NFL player who has the same agent as Owens (Drew Rosenhaus).

    Word is that there's a deal in place with Denver once Philly cuts Ownes that Denver likes, Owens likes, and shouldn't cost too much.

    I'm pumped.

    Of course, the "friend of a friend who knows someone" source is always the most reliable.

    When he was on the 9ers just about every week he would say or do something stupid, that would get in the papers and local sports talk radio then a few days later he would be back on TV bitching about how every one is out to get him (I have seen Bonds make similar statements). I wonder if he’ll do the same thing there.

    Barry could always go into wrestling. Everyone knows they're the kings of roids. BTW has Barry publicly accused the writers of being racist yet? That's his way out of everything.

    he still should NOT be stripped of his title. Bonds is one of the greats. he is a part of history and i am sure glad that i got to watch him play. and forget about asterisks. MLB needs to split its history into era's and have records for each. just some examples...
    154 game schedule era
    162 game schedule era
    pre black(afro-american)athlete era
    performance enhancement era
    post Bonds era

    GO GIANTS!!

    Yeah? You'd still vote him into the Hall of Fame knowing he cheated?

    If they won't even allow Pete Rose into the HOF, I don't see how Bonds could get in if they ever prove he cheated...

    Everyone knows he cheated. It's more than obvious. Milk is not THAT good.

    Yeah, it is quite obvious... But unfortunately for some reason they haven't proven it yet...

    What a piece of trash...Kudos to those who wrote that book, though people will still be blind to it and consider Bonds "the best"...give me a break.

    "right you are ken"
    the "supplements" were not BANNED at the time. so there for denying use of BANNED drugs/supplements was a true statement.

    and what about any pitcher who has intentionally walked a batter. to some that would be "cheating". would they be held out of the HOF? similar to the hack-a-shaq crap. it isnt the game in its purist but has evolved to the times. just like the players. just like the "supplements". just like everything else in this dog-eat-dog society.

    just havin fun w/ this thread. i go in peace.

    I hate the intentional walk rule... But then there really isn't a way around it...
