Actually he did get a ring, the Giants gave him one for sure in 2010, not sure about the next 2 though. He was in the parade all 3 years. Another laughable quote from you "no one considers bonds holding any records " lol just stop.

That, and he's the only guy ever to draw an intentional walk with the bases loaded.

I love when the nerds count rings in team sports. They act like it's tennis or boxing and obviously never played an inning or a down. I am talking about the sportsclownnerd you were answering.

Yeah, that makes sense, they drew the line at Bonds. McGwire, Clemens, Sheffield, Sosa, Palmeiro, etc are all enshrined, right? No one ever talked about taking the rest of the trash out, huh? This fantasy world where only Barry Bonds was punished is complete garbage. He’s a cheater. He got what he deserved: lots of money, no friends, and no place in the game. This isn’t “cancel culture” it’s “actions have consequences culture”. Otherwise known as normal society when bad things get cut (see Firefly) because they’re bad.

All the sad fan boys arguing that “because other bad people are in the hof and/or in the media, it’s hypocritical of Bonds not getting his plaque” are just grasping at straws. That’s like saying that since we once didn’t have the internet, we should always not have the internet. Stupid argument. He made a mockery of some of the games most sacred records and somehow people still defend him like he’s some innocent martyr. Just stop.

This is one of the most nonsensical equivalencies I’ve ever seen on here. Congratulations.

What does the internet’s existence have to do with a debate on morality and selective enforcement of moral code based on success and records broken?

The point is to get people to continue to think about BB.

The OP, or one of his friends, will try another bait thread like this in 3-5 weeks for kicks.

Fascinating: so what’s the end game? I sell my Bonds cards and change my handle to DominguezSotoTrout2Bellinger, buy a tinfoil hat, live in the BST forum selling hits from my retail boxes, and stalk modern threads lobbing molotovs at players I don’t like but secretly love?

You don’t have an end game. As indicated, you’re just planning to post a thread like this every 3-5 weeks....just out of sheer frustration of some sort and to get a rise out of others.

The stats are crazy, but what would Mike Trout’s stats look like had he done all the things Bonds allegedly did? Maybe Trout hits 90 hrs and is intentionally walked 200 times, who knows. Arguing about Bonds/PED use in general is just like arguing politics. No-one’s mind is changed and everyone just gets pissed and digs in. Best to just move on.

“Trevor Bauer tells me Mike Trout has an exemption from the league for therapeutic HGH for thyroid issue, and that players know this and generally don’t care,” Roberts tweeted. “Says there’s a whole complicated process to qualify for such an exemption from MLB.”

How do you know Trout isn't using PED's? It's quite naive to think the current testing regime is even close to effective, and that players just suddenly stopped taking PEDs en masse ten years ago

Considering bonds never tested positive and only allegedly used from 99-04, playing when anyone could have used.....
Also, what about the juiced balls mlb has been using the last few years? Trout has an advantage over bonds there, as well as playing in a much more homer friendly ballpark. Power hitters have avoided signing with sf because they knew their stats would suffer

Are you seriously suggesting that Mike Trout is using PEDs? Jesus, I didn’t realize how irrational you Bonds apologists are.

He ( and We ) can’t prove a negative / it’s illogical..... so, how do you KNOW he is?

Yes, he never tested positive...

https://www.espn.com/mlb/news/story?id=3112982

He didn't know what he was taking, anyway...

Luckily juiced balls only started when Trout entered the league...

Not sure if you are serious.
Trout can do whatever he wants to his body and he won't come close to bonds.

Steroids won't help with all those strikeouts.
