Google Earth shows a major road in the way but there must be crossing bridges or underpasses for pedestrians?

Is it possible for someone to not like Barry Bonds without being called a rascist? Theres so many questions on here about Bonds and it seems like everytime someone says they dont like him someone else calls that person a rascist.

I dont like Barry Bonds. Not because hes black but because I think he cheated and I think he is an arrogant jerk. You might not agree with me, but that doesnt mean Im rascist.

Shunsuke Watanabe was on the Japan national team with currently Red Sox pitcher, Dice-K. Shunsuke was closer for Japan national team as won the close game over Cuba in the World Baseball Classic last year. He uses two-seam Gyroball which is close to Dice-K.

I understand he is considered a jerk, but I dont care.

Everyone will also bring up the steroid scandal, which he was never tested positive for. But people still deny his greatness on an athletic level (not personal or social).

Others say he would not have reached this level without the use of steroids, but answer me this... Now that they supposedly have better steroid testing and test more frequently, how come he still hits around 40 home runs each year when healthy after the BALCO scandal in 2002?

Is it still luck? Or is it because he's black?
Is it also because Hank Aaron was black that he didn't get such a celebration when he surpassed Babe Ruth? Is baseball just racist?

If Bonds quit with 754 homeruns would you respect him? Wouldnt this show that he had a lot respect for the record and Hank Aaron?

10 games out with alot of games left. The Astros are pretty hot right now. The brewers are not. Look at the track records of the Astros 2004, 2005. and 2006. There hitting the ball very good and there relief pitching has been outstanding lately.

Since 2000, ESPN has poisoned baseball lexicon by calling a home team scoring a game winning run (via base hit or homerun) a walk off. No one "walks" in the process of getting a game winner. It totally insults the intelligence of a baseball fan. Whatever happened to sipmly calling a game ending RBI a game winner?

Also a side question: Is anyone else annoyed with ESPN in general? The "Who's Now" popularity contest is a joke. Simply crown LeBron James and get it over with (it's what they're going to do anyway). While I'm not a Sidney Crosby fan, he was totally railroaded by "voters" and the so-called "panelists" (a washed up NFL crybaby, a loser of a college quarterback who never made it in the NFL, and a hack Washington Post writer), not to mention the overrated Stuart Scott (boo-ya got old a loooooong time ago, fella). Totally diminished Crosby's accomplishments ("Jeter is on the Yankees, after all", that and I don't recall Jeter ever winning a regular season MVP). Weigh in people!

Should steroids be legal in Baseball? Since about 40 to 50% of the ball players are using them anyway, should Bonds record be untainted? Is it fair for those who decide NOT to use them? What do you think?

The level of hypocrisy on white peoples mind are disgusting..
I could have sworn that I never saw this outrage when mark mcguire was caught doing steroids.

AND if I may ask, what happened to INNOCENT UNTILL PROVEN GUILTY?????

The feds can't even take Barry to court because they don't have ANYTHING to charge this man with!!!. I come on this board everyday and find people talking about Bonds taking steroids like is a fact!

BONDS HAS NOT BEEN FOUND GUILTY OF ANYTHING AND IF YOU BELIEVE IN THE JUSTICE SYSTEM OF THE USA, THEN YOU HAVE TO RESPECT THESE WORDS

"INNOCENT UNTILL PROVEN GUILTY"

GO barry bonds and ignore these racists. Where were they were mark mcguire was doing steroids

I think they should have Beckett,Dice-K, Shilling,Gabbard and Lester in rotation. Move Wakefield to long relief and trade Snyder or DelCarmen for an off the bench hitter.

Yankees fans- be honestly and say in the positive words. When you answer this question as I want to see the positive feelings from you.

For non-Yankees fans- what do you think that Orioles will sweep Yankees today to increase Red Sox's lead in the division?

Barry Bonds hit 40 HR's 3 times in 15 years until 2000 where he hit over 40 HR's 5 years in a row, with 73 in 2001.

Black people want to make excuses for Bonds like he still has to hit the ball. When you are juiced, you have the energy and let's face it, Bonds either has a personality disorder or he's just an ***.

Anyway you look at it, black america is in denial if they don't think this dude took illegal enhancments.

Bonds is a tarnish on the game, he's not the true HR hitter that Aaron was. And a tarnish for the black community. It shows that cheating is ok and black america will turn their head the other way.

I'm hoping that the truth will get out and Bonds is exposed for the fraud he is. He is a shameful man.

Could they have been forced to take performance-enhancing drugs(IF THEY DID TAKE THEM-NOT SAYING THEY DID) or had not been real knowledgable to the effects of them(if they did take them)? Many players have been accused,I'm talking about the Latin players only for now.

Last week they were all giddy, SCREAMING we're 6.5 games out! Are Boston fans scared? Well, NOW they are 9 games out and that magic number keeps getting smaller and smaller.

IT NOWS STANDS AT 50!
Any Combination of Boston Wins and/or yankee LOSSES
equally 50 and it's over! See-Ya! Bye-Bye!

Don't get me wrong.. I love A-Rod, Ichiro, Manny Ramierez, Jeter, Pudge etc.

But I also want to hear about players not mentioned everyday!

Who are some of your favorite players not really know around the league? It can be a rookie or someone just called up from the minors for the first time. Even people you feel don't get enough credit for what they do..
