Barry Bonds' return?

Anyone heard when he is coming back from grieving the tragic loss of his father/mentor?

I have a feeling we'll see Barry hitting bombs again on Friday. Just in time to make the trip to Arizona. Barry ownes Kurt Schilling, and should make it interesting. I know Schill wants no part of Barry.

See Barry not only lost a dad, he lost his best friend too. No baseball game in the world is worth that.

I express my condolences to Barry and his family, but on a strictly baseball level it would not hurt my feelings one bit to have Barry decide baseball isn't for him.

i heard on the radio that he'll be back when the Giants return for their homestand. He won't be going to Arizona.

You know, now that I think about it, it really doesn't make a whole lot of difference as to whether or not Barry will be playing against us. We'll find a way to lose whether Bonds is in the lineup or not.

i) Aadik comes into save Barry's dignity and sucks his dick

^ kidding, kidding, kidding

Aadik, i'm not a fan of Barry Bonds, but i respect your loyality to a guy that seems to get bashed on a constant basis. You are without a doubt a good fan of his.

I like Barry, too. But I'm not as...obsessive? as Aadik.

Either Bert would hit Barry or Barry would hit Berts pitch(es) for a homer like many other major leaguers. Bert gave up his share of dingers, so I am thinking that this at bat would be to Barry's liking!

So Barry isn't the freindliest guy. At least he doesn't "showboat" like so many NBA and NFL players. He values his privacy and is not real friendly about letting people (re: sports writers) know that. I do not agree with his style of treating reporters but I respect the man for what he is doing for the sport of baseball.

So you don't like the man, fine don't cheer for him, but please show some maturity and cut the guy some slack, after all he did just lose his father...

Sigh- I recall someone asking why I was away- posts/threads with such brilliant withering literature are probably one of the main reasons. My god man, if you're going to insult someone, at least attempt to be amusing- don't come across as a complete idiot...
