Who is better Bary Bonds or Mark Mcgwire?

Answer 1

Barry Bonds is a better all around player, but they both used steroids so I have no respect for either of them, but Barry will always be better than McGwire, all he could do was hit homers, Barry was a great all around player before he started taking roids and getting older.

Answer 2

Well i wish this one was close , but its not

both are members of the 500 hr club, but Bonds is about to go to number one all time, and also have more then 500 sb's he has several gold gloves (though is a liability now in the field). I hate to say this, but Bonds is the best player of our generation i think second is toss up between maddux and griffey jr. mcgwire is definetly a top 10 of the last 20 years.

Answer 3

Bonds. They both took steriods but Barry Bonds. Barry will have the most career homers soon, and he has the most homers in a season. Mcgwire is awesome in Home Run derby though.

Answer 4

In what life or baseball. In life Mark Mcgwire wins hands down.

Answer 5

Bonds

Answer 6

Neither has failed a drug test. Neither has any DIRECT testimony against them. Both are surrounded by hearsay, circumstantial evidence, and an overzealous and down right despicable media. Bonds is by far the better player though.

Answer 7

Whether they took steroids or not, Bonds has ALWAYS been a superior all-around player. No question about it. Check both of their career stats and awards and you'll see what a simple choice it is.

Answer 8

Niether they both use steriods and hate anyone who uses steriods and bonds does not deserve to beat hank aaron because the bats and balls are so much better today and the fences are shorter. its predicted that if babe ruth would have played in this decade he would have had 915 homeruns

Answer 9

Barry Bonds because they both did roids but bonds was really good before then.

Answer 10

OK, let us break this down in a response the way you listed info. Pete Rose. Yes, he committed the "ultimate" sin by betting on baseball. It cannot be denied. That is the cardinal rule of baseball and has been since the blacksoxs days. All baseball players know that and it should be accepted, period. So what do you do with Pete Rose? It was proved that he bet on baseball, while he managed, Therefore, pete Rose, THE MANAGER, should never be allowed into the HOF. On the other hand, as has happened MANY times, they enter ppl into the HOF who did both and make it know that it is for one or the other and NOT both. The HOF itself had ALREADY set a standard of seperating the ball PLAYER from the ball MANAGER. Rose the manager, NO. Rose the Player, YES!!! And while your at it, if you want to defend that HOF because they are not backing down on the "betting on baseball because its the worst thing you can do" then you need to check yourself. the HOF has ADMITTED racists(didnt YOU even make a point for us to keep race out of the B. Bond issue?????), ADMITTED cheaters, CONVICTED rapists AND murderers, CONVICTED child abusers, CONVICTED drug dealers, and a host of other things. The ONLY reason betting on baseball is the only unforgivable sin is beacuse that is about the ONLY thing a player/mamger can do that would directly effect baseball as a whole and TAKE MONEY OUT OF THEIR POCKETS!!! This means simply that they do not care what a player does, even if it would end up hurting YOU or one of your children/family members as long as they are making money. You talked about ppl needing to learn more about baseball before they respond to answers, perhaps you should learn more too! Mark McGwire. If he DID use and it was PROVED he did, then i agree, he should NOT be in the HOF, period!!! However, if it was nefver proven through tests and/or by him admitting it, then he does belong in the HOF, period. I dont know where you come from, but here in AMERICA we have something called rights. Those rights state that he IS innocent UNTIL PROVEN guilty. Now, maybe you think that because you, and many others think he used that this is like communist Germany and you have Hitler's permission to say he shouldnt be allowed to get into the HOF because you just "know" he used Steriods, but it doesnt work that way. Barry Bonds. This is the EXACT same answer at McQwire. If he did use and it was prove, he doesnt belong in the HOF, period. if he did use and it is proven, he DID cheat, period!!!!! If he didnt admit it and it was never proven, then he does belong in the HOF. The HOF itself needs to be fixed, as it is a slap in the face to every play who is in the HOF and earned as well as a slap to every fan who supports baseball and pays their bills. Baseball is "America's pastime" and not "White people's pasttime" yet people like Ty Cobb, who is an admitted racist is in the HOF. Baseball is supposed to have players that kids and adults alike can look up to, yet people like Orlando Cepeda, who was convicted of possesion with intent to distribute 160 pounds of pot is in the HOF. Baseball is about competition, and who is the better team and better player, yet people like Gaylord Perry, who admitted to greasing the ball and was so well known for it that he greased two spots so the umps couldnt catch him CHEATING, and he did it his whole carrer, is in the HOF. Ohh, this is the same man who sits as a member of the board for the HOF who says Rose shouldnt be allowed to be in the HOF because he is a lier, cheat, and would make the HOF look bad(can we say POT, KETTLE, BLACK??). The HOF is supposed to be a place where men of distention and honor are remember for their contributions to baseball, yet guys like Babe Ruth(YES, babe Ruth), who was a womanizer, drunk and even PURCHASED a child illegally(Tell me you wouldnt flip out right now if your heard that some Joe Smo tried to buy a child cause if you say you wouldnt your lieing) IS IN THE HOF!!!!!!! Are you starting to see a pattern here of what the HOF and its members are about? All they care is what will, and more importantly, what wont make them money. As long as their pockets are lined they will allow anyone in the HOF, deserve it or not, and they will also deny anyone into the HOF, deserve it or not. I am done!!!!
