New Bonds Allegations

Just when it looks like some of the dust has settled on the Bonds/ steroids front, a whole new wave of charges are levied against the Giants' slugger.  Follow the link:

Item 4 seems particularly damning.

Well, how do you expect the nuns to fly without a little help?
Strikeouts are boring. Besides that, they're fascist. Not boring: Emmanuel Burriss. Not facist: THE RETURN OF SF Dugout

Also noted by wilriv21 over here.

Personally, I'm in a lot of suspense about the "illegal moonshine" claim. Is the other shoe going to drop - allegations that Bonds plays the banjo?

Re: New Bonds Allegations
he also sued Michael Vick for $63 quintillion claiming that Vick "stole his pit bulls and sold them on eBay to 'use the proceeds to purchase missiles from the Iran government.'" He also said that "Michael Vick has to stop physically hurting my feelings and dashing my hopes."

He sued Bonds before in 2006 (along with President Bush, the Queen of England, Chris Berman, the Magna Carta, the Vatican, Mein Kampf, Medieval Times, Tara Reid and the Brotherhood of the Snake, just to name very few of the co-defendants> It's quite an exhaustive list.)

Congrats, Barry. You're the best there ever was in this game.

Re: New Bonds Allegations
Wwwwwoooowwwwww.

Holy crap. I think he forgot to mention Britney Spears, Lindsay Lohan and Howard Stern.

The weird part is I think I saw that guy behind the counter the last time I was at Starbucks.

Re: New Bonds Allegations
Also, I like the Biff reference. You were listening to KNBR's Murph and Mac the other morning, weren't ya?

My Favorite
I loved that Selig and Bonds met at the Steak and Shaker Restaurant. I also enjoyed the line where he was bench pressed against his will by Bonds.
  If he wasn't so mentally ill it would be even funnier.

Re: New Bonds Allegations
Start him off at first, then turn him into a "utility" infielder. He sounds like he has a lot of veteran savvy.
