I agree with you, Matt, 100%. A classless individual. He's the opposite of the likes of Tony Gwynn, Joe Morgan, Derek Jeter, Cal Ripken, Omar Vizquel, Mike Schmidt, Tom Seaver, Bob Gibson, Stan Musial, Lou Gehrig, Roger Maris, and countless others who played the game right. If I had a son I'd want him to be the kind of man first, and ballplayer 2nd that were like these men. He chose to use steroids and he chose to be an arse hole.
What does Leyland have to do with SF’s titles? Bonds never won a World Series in San Fran. Educate yourself before attempting to be funny, you idiot. Also, San Francisco is the biggest dump in America. A liberal run dump that is infested with homelessness, crime and drugs.
Brad Sullivan can’t stand the people but you’re wrong. You can pretty much say that about at least one area in every major city. There’s a lot of beautiful and safe places in SF, sorry you came broke maybe next time come with some cash and enjoy yourself
jim Leland was awesome. I’m glad he didn’t put up with any of Bonds baby bullshit. Unfortunately if that happened today he would be called a racist and fired
Bonds claimed Pittsburgh was a racist town. But Pittsburgh loved Mean Joe Green and Willie Stargell. Pittsburgh didn't like Barry Bonds,...but not because he was Black, but because he was an A-hole!
he literally retired 8 years ago, it's not like he quit a very very long time ago. The only way he'd be called racist is if he said or done something racist, that's how that works. Racists are the true snowflakes.
I seriously doubt that.. Jim Leyland was universally loved by all of his players, fans and anyone else who followed the game, regardless of race. I'm an avid baseball fan and most Black baseball fans also couldn't stand Barry . Being a jerk is benign to race.
bonds got everything coming to him. most don't consider her home run king. which is worse having achieved that, than never even being close to the record.
Man Bonds was a jerk. Has anyone he ever played with ever had a good thing to say about him? That's an honest question. He's basically legendary for his poor treatment of people.
Bonds was afraid Bonilla would get the big contract over him and he should of at least Bonilla didn't take steroids.. But Bonilla took his bat and went to the Mets
Speaking of “smart”, Bonilla’s baseball contract pays him a deferred salary until the year 2035. That’s over $1,000,000 annually for 34 years AFTER he retired.
I live in Bradenton where pirate city is. It's in the absolute worst part of town and many are scared to even go near that area now unfortunately. When I was a kid I didn't know any better. We just wanted autographs from our idols!
Well, it is just too difficult to be Roberto. In 1967 I was an usher at the All-Star game in Anaheim. So, before the game I showed people to their seats made light, etc. But I was able to scan the field and watch the little details in batting practice. I was on the lowest deck between home and first. Ball was hit to deep right. Straight right. Clemente, calmly stepped back, caught the ball, and threw to home. It was a strike. Roberto's back was almost against the wall. Only a fraction of the fans had been seated by that time, but the sound that came out of the crowd was wonderful and unique.Aaaaahhh... The crowd doesn't always have to roar to express deep admiration. That was the best throw I've ever seen! The game that followed was just a bit of a let down.
Total baby. Crying about a camera during practice. Bonds wouldn't even be in the team pictures in SF. What a lousy teammate. Guess the lights were too bright in 1991 and 1992 when my Braves beat the Pirates both years.
@@The_Bad_Guy. I never thought Maris deserved that silly astrisk. Everyone knew and knows now he'd never replace the Babe. And if Babe played in today's Yankee stadium in 1927 he'd have like 96 home runs. And that's taking away the cheap ones he got down that 296 porch
He was one of the best ever regardless of steroids but he traded in his hall of fame for those two homerun records. Records he would not have broken without cheating no matter how great he was
Hmmm .... ever heard of Babe Ruth, Willie Mays, Joe DiMaggio, Stan Musial, Hank Aaron , Griffey jr. Bonds was and will always be a "me" player. Baseball, and most sports, are team games. And teams get rings. See Bill Belichick's , Tom Brady's, Michael Jordan's, Joe Montana's resumes. That's what winners looks like. Bonds is a guy who had all the skills and absolutely no class. 🖕 Bonds !
@@LordofDublin4 Yes! Joe Montana is the G.O.A.T in football, Michael Jordan is the G.O.A.T in basketball. But in "MY" opinion Barry Bonds is the G.O.A.T in baseball...

You know, this is not to offend Barry bonds at all but I believe I heard something back in the day that his father Bobby was the exact same way in the clubhouse
It was the roids that made Bonds aggressive ….I’ve seen big bouncers in nightclubs back in the 90s pick guys up like they were 30 pounds and throw them out of the front door ..
Good thing Jim was carrying the bat with him if bonds was on roids back there he could of went into a roid rage and messednip Jim. Rember Jimmy is the blanky blank MANGER. And takes no shit from.any player
Glen Christenson as I see it he was a hall of fame talent and would’ve accomplished a lot regardless but never would’ve broken those home run records without steroids and that’s why I feel he should be banned from the HoF. He cheated the game and Ruth and Aaron, their records should still stand, Bonds is fake, it took years of superhuman numbers for him to pass those guys
Barry Bonds is one of the many reasons I quit watching baseball over 25 years ago. These guys are so overpaid and a lot of them don’t appreciate the fans that pay their salaries.
Bonds was always a narcissistic, arrogant, selfish person. Coach Bill Virdon was one of the players of the 1960 World Series champion Pittsburgh Pirates. Barry Bonds probably never cared about him. Some older baseball fans have told me that Barry played horribly as a Pirate during the playoffs. His over inflated ego made him take the juice after he watched Mark McGwire and Sammy Sosa shatter Roger Maris home run record of 61. Barry Bonds refused to train with his other teammates and had his own personal trainer. He also had a section of the locker room in the clubhouse entirely to himself. Hall of Famer Tony Gwynn said of Bonds, “He either likes you, or he don’t”.
Bonds was being an a$$, but he wanted out of Pittsburgh which was becoming a minor baseball market in co parison to bigger cities. Especially, with struggles of Pittsburgh’s dying industry. One player doesn’t make a team. This was even prior to the salaries going really inflationary crazy. I agree with Leyland and someone needs to be in charge. Bond still needed to pay attention to coaches and do his best with media to promote the team. This was before media was truly bad so it should have been no big deal. Leyland was just putting his foot down and telling him he shouldn’t be acting like an egocentric and making commands over everyone and everything. Some guys are very gracious with their stardom and others aren’t. I can’t say how Barry Bonds was our feels about how he acted later in life. People age they change and mature. Maybe he is a good guy and maybe he isn’t. Barry Bonds was a very good athlete made great by steroids but so were many others during that era.
Let me tell you -- Leyland went easy on him because BILLY MARTIN would have knocked Bonds on his ass - no doubt about it - and trust me Bonds may have won the fight but Billy would make sure Barry looked like an 18 wheel truck hit him in the face - GUARANTEED!
@@btone310 He’s admitted he did them you ignoramus. His excuse is that they weren’t technically illegal during his era. He’s a cheater whether you like it or not.
The Juice was already flowing here. You can see a pretty noticeable size increase from say 89 of bonds very slender frame into the monster he would become using the juice. He didn't deserve the HOF as many claim for his accomplishments with Pirates because he was already using steroids.
Those Pirates teams were playing for championships and they weren’t ever going to win one with or without him. There’s a reason Bonds teams always came up short, those types of players just don’t win rings no matter how great
@@zr8693 funny because you got to Gary Sheffield on the Marlins the question is did he start with the juice?.. so that means all steroid users win the World Series doesn't count?
