Duplicity re: the Bonds thread

Posted By: Bob S

Hey folks,

I hardly know where to start...

First of all, this OT post has been allowed to run on and on.

Srange departure from the purpose of this forum.

Also, the subtle scent of racism has been sensed in some of the posts.

Come on, folks, I've got several Ruth '33 Goudey's, and I realize the possible impact on the value of these gems if
Bonds surpaces (sp?) the Babes' HR #.

One could argue that without alcohol, the Babe would have hit less HR's.

I've had an exacerbation of my Lymes' disease, and, for the time being, I must stop posting.

But please consider the points I've brought up.

Thanks, folks.

Bob S

Alcohol only enhances two "sports": bowling and pool. If Babe wasn't a drunk he might have hit more dingers; if he wasn't a pitcher for a couple of years he might have hit 100 more. Who knows...

It's you. Same with pool IMO. You just think you're better when you drink.

A pint or two helps with darts also, and as far as I know it is the only sport in which alcohol is typically consumed during high level professional competitions.

I'm sure cards look undergraded with a little alcohol.

They always look overgraded to me after drinking. They look fuzzy with round corners and pictures out of register.

Of course in that massive thread it could have been missed... I didn't sense any racial overtones and feel this is one of the least macho and sensitive forums of all the Sports boards I've visited. In fact, I posted a delicate item at one time and was rapidly called to task by several (and hopefully pardoned). Personally, I believe McGwire, Sosa, Bonds and any other junkie, regardless of skin type, if not banned then should be stopped at the Hall doorstep by Selig. And although I am a huge fan of JJax, Landis made the right call boldly.

Bob, I hope you have a speedy recovery. That is such an insidious disease and affects several of my friends in many ways. I sure hope there is a vaccine soon. God bless.
