The sports forum has gotten so incredibly quiet ever since

[cboy4]

it was announced this week that Barry Bonds will indeed be found not guilty of everything.

Let me again say I told you so.

[fishnfla]

1. maybe people just got sick of loud-mouthed jerks

bitching back and forth about some millionaire loud-mouthed jerk

[cboy4]

2. I would let it drop if I received the apology I deserve.

That's a very fair deal INDEED

[madinmaryland]

12. ..

:spray:

The comedienne that keeps on giving!!

[a la izquierda]

3. He's still a...

douchebag...but a mere blip on the radar...of things I worry about. They pretty much all are, including A-Rod, of the NY Yankees, the team I support.
I imagine I'm not included in the folks you're talking about, because I've never said anything about him.

[trumad]

4. Allow me to repost what I wrote to your other half about said apology.

My 1st post:
Again---you prove my point---you're a dumass with a strawman argument
Those who believe that Bonds juiced like a wild man--- and there's about 99 percent who think he did, will still think that er---he juiced like a wild man.

The one percenters---those I call, Dumb Motherfuckers, -- have latched on to this case and are using it as a bellwether to claim--- see---he didn't use Steroids---or---see--- it was just the "Clear" and he didn't know.

So---you're dumbass Straw man is asking the 99 percenters to join your "Dumb Motherfucker" cult if he's acquitted for "Lying" to a grand jury.

Apologize for what? For not being a "Dumb Motherfucker"! You and your alter-ego can shove your straw man apology up your ass.

[TZ]

8. :thumbsup:

Its also idiotic to announce that he's going to get off before the trial even starts.

[Upton]

9. I know one thing

that 99% figure that you cite (is that a scientific poll?) will drop significantly should Bonds be found not guilty.

You'll then have two camps...those willing to do the right thing and accept the jury's verdict and the hysterical illogical Bonds haters.

[TZ]

10. yeah we all know that being found

not guilty means you are an angel. An OJ didn't do it either..:eyes:
Bonds is a lying cheating ahole no matter if he's convicted or not. Evidence thrown out of court is free to be considered by the rest of us.

[trumad]

11. More straw man bullshit from the "Dumb Motherfucker" cult.

Two camps huh? Too funny.

Is this the new "Dumb Motherfucker" cult talking point? A jury decides that there's not enough evidence to convict Bond's of lying to a Grand Jury and all of a sudden the 99 percenters are going to jump in droves to the "Dumb Motherfucker" cult?

So let me ask you a question: you stated---and I quote: "I think the numbers speak for themselves...you don't generally suddenly hit 73 HRS after never hitting more than 50 your entire career without a little help".

Question: Will you be apologizing to yourself?

[Upton]

15. Unlike yourself and the other Bonds haters

I'm willing to let the legal process run it's course before condemning a man..despite any suspicions I may have.

And don't fool yourself, should Barry be found not guilty.....those that believe Bonds knowingly took steroids will find their numbers noticeably reduced, as many will begin to question the wisdom of the Bonds haters and their ensuing rush to judgment.

[trumad]

17. Well--- you blast those who suspect he did--- but you, by your own words, suspect as well...

So--- will you be apologizing to yourself and to your other half, Cboy?

[Upton]

20. Let me just say this

if Bonds is found not guilty, it will be touted far and wide as not only vindication for Barry himself, but for those of us that have held true to one of the main staples of our country's judicial system...the presumption of innocence.

The Bonds haters have gone well past suspicion and already judged him guilty and pronounced sentence, then have compounded their mistake by reacting with outrage when questioned about it..

[trumad]

21. You're Straw Man is now on Steroids.

And you still haven't answered my question--- will you apologize to you and your other half for suspecting that he took steroids?

[Upton]

24. You're missing my point

any understandable suspicion that Bonds may have, knowingly or unknowingly, used steroids, is completely dwarfed by those such as yourself that already have him convicted. Only those that fall in the latter category should be apologizing...profusely at that.

[trumad]

27. Dude(s)---knowingly or unknowingly

And there lies the difference between the 99 percenters and the "Dumb Motherfucker" cult.

We 99 percenters laugh at you "Dumb Motherfuckers" who think that Bond's didn't know what he was taking.

You're telling us 99 percenters that if Bond's is acquitted, it verify's that he is telling the truth when he say's he didn't know that the needles that were being injected into his ass were full of Roids.

[cboy4]

53. Why would Upton have to apologize to me you moron?

[madinmaryland]

13. The only thing a not guilty plea will show is that Bonds did not

"knowingly" lie to the grand jury based on the information that the jury is allowed to here. That is all.

Does it prove that Bonds did not take roids? NO.
Does it prove that Bonds did not cheat? NO.

He has already admitted that he has used roids, albeit a hackneyed one.

Spin it all you want (or any way you want), that is all that can be taken from the court case.

[Upton]

16. Already preparing for a not guilty verdict aren't you?

If indeed that is the verdict (which if far from assured), any claim that Bonds used will be a much harder sell.

[trumad]

18. More LOL comments from the "Dumb Mottherfucker" cult.

[madinmaryland]

19. Re-read my post. Thanks.

[cboy4]

37. Sorry you consider the wheels of justice the "dumb

motherfucker cult."

[trumad]

47. Nice try

I consider your ilk, members of the "Dumb Moherfucker" cult.

[Captain Hilts]

5. It's February you idiot. There are no major sports stories this month. NONE. nt

[cobalt1999]

6. The sports page in my Sunday paper was only 6 pages today

Two on college basketball, one on Nascar, 3 misc.

Come on NCAA tournament!

[Captain Hilts]

7. Right, we're ALL waiting for the conference tournaments. Until then, blech! nt

[WilliamPitt]

14. Nah. It's just that nobody cares what you think.

:P

Pats re-signed Tully Banta-Cain last week. Hee.

:)

[madinmaryland]

23. Heh Heh!!

:rofl:

[WilliamPitt]

32. Of all the people on this board...

...I'm glad you appreciated that. :)

[Arkana]

26. They...they did?

Good god.

[cboy4]

30. Grrrrrrr

:argh:

[madinmaryland]

33. Heh!

:rofl:

[Gemini Cat]

22. I personally can't comment.

Considering that I live around 2,500 miles away from San Francisco and according to the rules of fandom put forth by one fan, I can't comment.
For me to do so would seriously violate all things near and dear to baseball and an insult to true baseball fans everywhere. The spirits of John McGraw, Mel Ott and Christy Mathewson would haunt me and worse yet, I might even get banned for life from all baseball parks, be forced to give up my baseball cards and most certainly never be allowed to skulk at the doors of Cooperstown.

It's just not worth being cast into baseball hell.

[nickgutierrez]

31. .

:thumbsup:

Well played.

[Arkana]

25. I thought it had gone quiet due to lack of football.

I know that without it I spend most of my time sitting in the fetal position and rocking back and forth.

[Forkboy]

28. Will you hold your breath waiting for an apology?

If the answer is "yes" let me know.

[cboy4]

29. Then I will continue blasting you and your fellow Bonds

haters.

[madinmaryland]

34. Thank you again, cboy.

:rofl:

[Forkboy]

35. How will we ever withstand it?

[cboy4]

36. You will throw and tantrum like you always do.

[Forkboy]

38. And then you'll lie and call people racists and homophobes.

[cboy4]

39. Only the people who deserve it

[Forkboy]

40. That'd be a first, seeing as how you started by calling people racists to "push buttons".

You didn't seem to care who deserved it then, so I commend you on finally getting the concept down.

[cboy4]

41. I never called anybody here a racist. That's all in your head.

[Forkboy]

42. Except when you admitted you called the Sports Forum people racists to "push buttons".

Are you really going to claim you didn't say that in front of all the people here who saw that thread? Really?

:rofl:

[cboy4]

43. Link?

I said fans.

I never said anyone's name here.

[Forkboy]

44. LOL...the subthread got deleted...as you know. Nice try.

I figured you'd pull this once your words weren't there anymore. You said fans first, then why I called you on it you said it was to push the buttons of the Sports Forum Bonds haters. I'm sure you're thrilled it got erased so you can pull your innocent act. And to think the Oscars are going to someone else tonight.

Should we ask some of the other members down here what they saw?

Hell, you just called trumad a homophobe the other day. It's all you ever have, and no one in this forum even takes you seriously anymore (outside of your siamese twin). You're a joke down here, dude, and you did it to yourself.

At first I thought your weaselly nature was just kind of an act, but now I have to say that you're probably the slimiest DUer I've seen outside of Tellurian. Be proud, it's probably your first accomplishment in life.

[cboy4]

45. Case dismissed. You have no evidence.

[Forkboy]

46. LOL...ok, Perry Mason.

:rofl:

Tell Tellurian I said hi at your next lying dumbass get together. :hi:

[cboy4]

51. I have no idea who Tellurian is, so your reference makes no

sense.

[ProfessorGAC]

48. You Told Us Nothing

There's no "i told you so". You just acted like the fawning jock sniffer you are.

You're ridiculous.
GAC

[cboy4]

50. Of course I told everyone that this has been nothing less than

a witch hunt.

And now the government is walking away in shame.

With their tail between their legs.

[Forkboy]

49. "be found not guilty of everything." So what will he be found guilty of?

:rofl:
