It's more that you don't considered him one of the greats. Bonds is arguably the GOAT
You mean the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim

Bonds ain't better than Jeter.

I'm so hyped for the O's games, except they're so fucking early in the day out here, plus I have massive projects going live at work right now, I'm missing the first two games for sure, probably third too. I mean 9AM Friday morning game? I'm getting fucked. O's better win some games. Eleven would be great.
You bolded the 1st ballot part......
Either way nobody puts Barry in that as a serious conversation, his legacy is sincerely tainted. I agree his stats are staggering, in an era absolutely proven to have been massively tarnished by steroids. What he did with steroids? That was more than anybody else on steroids has ever done. Without the steroids he legitimately could've also been a top 10 type of guy. That being said, nobody has any respect for this guy, and the MLB is doing what they can to keep it that way.

Are you defending one cheater, while running down another?

LATIN, MATRIPEDICABUS, DO YOU SPEAK IT
I'm making the point that regardless of your thoughts on spygate, and you all know my stance, call it bias if you want, but the point was is that when you're caught and it affects your legacy, it shows. Jabbee was hoping for some magical "reopen the case and uncover the dirt!" scenario, as if there really is anything to uncover. It doesn't make a damn bit of difference in the end. Tom and bill will be first ballot top of their class HOFers. They already have cemented their legacy as some of the greatest to have ever played/coached.

The first half of his career he was already a sure lock for HOF.

He was already one the greatest players of all time before 98 anyways, and there were no real rules on steroids at the time, unlike the rules against spying on other teams that propelled your favorite joke of a system QB to 3 undeserved super bowls and probably a completely undeserved spot in the Hall of Fame. Only the crotchety old media types have no respect for Bonds. And we know how intellectually honest those types are.
Lions-Bills Spread Analysis

I hate this nonsense perpetuated that Stafford doesn't distribute the ball. Of course Megatron will be the focus but Staff was dishing it out to Methed out Titus Young, healthy Nate Burleson, Tony Schfleer etc. He did not have a legitimate #2 receiver till we signed Golden Tate (who looked like a #1 last week). I'm also getting more convinced Ebron will be a great hybrid TE as the season goes on. He's only 21 years old.
The media pussy footing once again when it comes to praising this team. We're not "quietly" one of the best teams in the NFC, we are sans the Seahawks and that's only because they're the defending champs. The Cardinals with Palmer or Stanton are better than our team. Can't wait till we play the Cards and that lethargic offense. For some reason we always have to travel to Arizona to play them. I'll actually try to make it out to that game if we finish our job in the great state of Oklahoma.

I can't believe Golden Tate is about to be a back to back champ.
:jnc

Lol wow you are so mad, struck a nerve there. Prior to 07 there were no rules against taping other teams signals bud. Deal with it.
edit- also hilarious undeserved spot in the hall. Post spygate alone is almost enough to get Tom in the hall. His stats are staggering, with 2 MVP awards as well.

I always view Tate as a poor man's Steve Smith. That short receiver that can go get a jump ball and has strength to him.
I mean I barely knew who he was until that famous ref lockout game, considering most looked at him as a major disappointment at the time. I still don't really get what his strengths are, he just never really flashed to me. The highlights from this past lions game were damn impressive, he looked ridiculous after the catch, not sure if that's his thing.

He's the sure handed WR you go to on 3rd down because he won't drop the fucking ball, and probably can squeeze an extra 3-5 yard on any given play.
Damn one mention of Brady and you have to scramble to defend your precious system QB
But the bolded part is definitely not true.
Lol it is dude look it up. Ouch.
Edit- I'd also like to add I'm not scrambling to anything, your hyperbole is hilarious and you don't back up what you claim for instance bolding my claiming bonds is not a 1st ballot HOFer, when that was a FACT not a "sports opinon", which really... come to think of it isn't that just an opinion on sports? Not sure what you were driving at. And again fact check yourself on rules of stealing signals.
Damnit Brits, stop throwing a pile of random stuff on a plate:
Looks disgusting. Ill be in Baltimore today so hopefully there will be better food than this.
Everything I saw him play it seemed he lacked separation and size. Always felt Russell needed more than him to get a fair shot at entering the elite conersation.

It will be interesting to see what happens with Brady and he cheat. No SBs without camera assistance is glaring. I bet that there will be people in the room that mention that. Hell Parcells didn't even get in on the first ballot and he is a much better coach then the cheat, and he isn't tainted by spygate.

Time was TBD until the wild card played out. Now that the Royals have clinched the last spot the O's game is 5:37pm eastern or 2:37pm your time.

I guess it's true. Brits really do want to be American after all. Jealous of our bowls and piles of food.

Only way he gets a job coaching I the future is is he tows the nfl company line about Spygate
I really doubt Bill Cowher wants back into coaching

Honestly, neither does Jon Gruden. Yet people still talk about it. Hilariously they both supposedly have nearly identical terms to coming back to coach. Basically, the team would have to be Super Bowl bound!
I bet both get paid like 1-2 million a year just to do their job at a fraction of the hours needed to be a head coach in the NFL. Lot of time with the family, good salary and if you dont do a scandal your job is very secure.
Damnit Brits, stop throwing a pile of random stuff on a plate:
Yeah as a Brit this did shock me, until I saw that it was a northern thing.
Then I sighed and moved on, they're all mental and have no respect for themselves there anyway.

Hello you savages
He knows he wants to continue to interview for NFL head coaching jobs.
But more importantly as guys who couldn't get it done without assistance.
They are the NFLs Bob Dole. That's a Viagra joke for you youngsters.
Pats probably killed his wife. They have a history with that. Dude has like 3 daughters to think about.
Remember when the commish said the same thing and then burned all the evidence? It's a nice attempt at a coverup but anyone with an iq above Gata can see the truth!
Squeeeee football!
