He's had success against me? You must be smoking Kool-Aid... What success have you been reading? I don't fear no pitcher, dog."

--Bonds, on one writer's assertion that he had been unsuccessful (9-for-30) against Al Leiter (N.Y. Post)

 

"I want to keep you guys in a job. I don't want you guys to lose your jobs... Shoot, when I retire SportsCenter's going to just (have intro music)... that's it. Nothing else. You're not going to have [bleep] to write about. Y'all are going to lose your jobs when I leave."

--Bonds

 

"You got a crystal ball up your rear end? Nobody knows what's going to happen, dude. You can't predict the future. If you could, I would've won a ton of money on the Marlins."

--Bonds, on whether he'll walk 200 times this year

 

"Sometimes I feel like I can run but my mind is lying to me."

--Edgar Martinez, Mariners DH, after trying to score from third base on a ground out against the Tigers (Seattle Times)

 

"I don't compare years... but in my book, last year doesn't count."

--Darin Erstad, Angels first baseman (L.A. Times)

 

"There's not even a question... Hitting .220 with 100 RBIs is productive. There are benchmarks, certain statistics you want to get to, but what it comes down to is RBIs and scoring runs."

--Erstad

Barry wishes he bet on the fish...

Barry's an ass and edgar is all class!

Those Bonds quotes rule!

Barry's an ass and edgar is all class!

Quit smokin that kool-aid sorianofan.

 

Bonds is the man. He may not be the nicest to the media but he gives them cool quotes so they can do their stories.

Bonds really said that quote about Sportcenter?

 

Wow.....

i still like him

 

y'all just hate the playa

i still like him

 

y'all just hate the playa

Still?

 

I like him MORE after reading that awesomeness.

You know what the sad part is? If it was Ali saying this stuff everyone would love it and admire it. The fact that it's Barry Bonds makes all the haters come out of their hidey-holes and post their negative opinions (I'm not saying you shouldn't, I'm just saying, these quotes are CLASSIC).

I don't like Ali either...sorry.

 

Bonds is a jerk, guys, I can say stuff like "Damn it, I hate black people, I'm white, bla bla bla" I'm not suddenly more lovable. Bonds is an a**hole.

Just because you hit 3943756423 HR's doesn't mean you have to be an ass

Long Live Barry....

 

A little swagger never hurt anyone, especially when you can back it up everytime you step to the plate.

I just cannot stand overconfident people

 

there's a fine line with being confident and being cocky

 

i mean of course barry can back it up but you don't have to brag about it

He's so self concious.

Why not? All he ever does is get ripped anymore, I dont blame him for being a bit POed once in a while.

Bonds should just not talk, and just go out and play

I want him to talk more now

Why not? All he ever does is get ripped anymore, I dont blame him for being a bit POed once in a while.

i agree with that but he coulda came up with some better stuff then "oh you'resmokin kool-aid and you guys would lose your job blah blah blah"

Bonds should just not talk, and just go out and play

So he should just be some robot out there? :thumbdown

Bonds should just not talk, and just go out and play

So he should just be some robot out there? :thumbdown ok, don't say controversial things

 

he thinks he's the best, which is never a good thing, even though he is

Again, like a robot.

He can talk all he wants, it is pretty funny sometimes.

 

Just shut up about the race thing.

?I?m not a very big fan of foreigners. You can walk an entire block in Times Square and not hear anybody speaking English. Asians and Koreans and Vietnamese and Indians and Russians and Spanish people and everything up there. How the hell did they get into this country??

I like it when ball players have a raicst sense of humor, it adds some swagger :cool

Rocker, Bonds, and anyone else who bring up race with no REAL cause with REAL proof are idiots trapped in their own illusions.
