The One Where Everyone Needs To Shut Up About Barry
GOD I AM SO SICK OF HEARING ABOUT BARRY BONDS. THE MEDIA NEEDS TO QUIT IT. Now I am a huge Giants fan, which kind of automatically makes me a Barry Bonds fan, and I have to admit, it's pretty exciting having the most feared slugger on your team, but dude, enough is enough. Barry this barry that. Every Giants game recap is all about how Barry was pitched. How Barry is old. How Barry is injured. How Barry will dodge questions about steroid use. The media won't get a freaking clue. He won't ever talk to them about that and yet every question is about it. Grow a brain!
Also, putting the perjury crap aside, Barry is offensively boring this so far. Barry is nothing worth devoting 3/5ths of replay time to. Does the world really care how he was pitched at every game? NO. What they should focus on are the awesome plays coming from Vizquel. They need to devote more time to Randy Winn, best-thing-to-come-out-of-Seattle-since-Starbucks. Tim Worrell, whose been a great interim closer. Matt Morris. Mike Matheny's ass. Show them that stuff. We really don't need to see every walk, ground out and strike out by Barry Bonds. The only time we'll care is if he actually hits something, which he will, and then they can go ad nauseum about whatever they want, asterisks, whatever.
If they want some steroid controversy, maybe they should pay more attention to Albert Pujols. You think he's not juiced?!
