When a software company make a video game they have to pay MLB and MLBPA (Players Union) Royalties for using the Teams Names, Stadiums, and the Players Names and Likeness in their game. And in older games you could get to have Barry Bonds in the games. But a 2 years ago Barry Bonds said that if anyone (games, trading Card Companies) wanted to use his name and likeness in their product they have to have a seperated agreement with him. So instead of doing that most companies just make somebody with his stats and put him in left feild for the SF Giants

Einstein you should go get an english book yourself. Ofter is not a word. Barry Bonds should do like himself in the video games and just disappear.

He doesn't agree to the terms. On most games you can create a player with Barry-like stats. Sometimes games even have an unnamed player with Barry's stats.

Maybe you should spend a little less time jacking off on video games and a little more time learning how to speak, read, and write! Anywho. . . . Players need to authorize game companies to use their likeness. . . . ofter players say screw the companies or are not happy with the amount of money they are offered to use their likeness! Now go buy an English text book!
