Barry Bonds. They say he's arrogant, an asshole, a steroid abuser and not deserving of anything. He's the scourge of baseball, "America's Game". (I'll get back to that later).
Since when did he owe you or anybody anything? Since when has he tested positive for anything? Since when did sports become a personality contest. Everyday when I'm trying to watch sports center all I hear is old white men whining about him breaking yet another record and how he tainted the game. How? Prove something please just once!
The only problem I have with Barry Bonds is that Lawrence Taylor earring he's still rockin'. I have no problem that yet another black man has tore up the league and left almost a Jordan like impression on the record books which in baseball is everything. He doesn't give in to playing the "house nigga" for the media and thats why they hate him. Nobody ever says shit about Roger Clemens who was brought up in the steroid thing by a player who got caught. Nobody finds it suspicious that he has gotten buff, better while skinny ass Randy Johnson has hit the DL 3 times this season. Also nobody says shit about how from the late sixties and up, players openly used amphetamines.
Barry was already a Hall of Famer before the steroids shit came up. Didn't come up till he shattered the record. Nobody said anything when McGwire was jacking out balls along with Sosa. It was a celebration, baseball was back!
So for all my black folks out there. Pay attention to your people in the news and watch when Bonds shatters the Home Run Record. Yet another black man has achieved the top level of greatness in yet another sport.
And honestly its really "Latin America's Game" because they pump out way better players then America does.
PEACE
