That salt. He hasn't played in 7 years and some people are still so salty

How was that comment 'salty'? Seemed like a compliment and a fact

 

[dmxfury]

Edit- unless you agreed with the Balco statement and meant others are salty. Then it is more clear

In that case A rod is the best player I have seen IMO

In their short history, the Nats have been apart of a lot of memorable moments not benefiting them.

Bonds #756
Pujols #500

You're a better person for it.

Bonds was legendary before those Balco years.

Agreed.

Twins call off Knoblauch induction post-arrest

Former Minnesota Twins star Chuck Knoblauch was arrested Wednesday night on charges that he allegedly assaulted his ex-wife.

The Twins issued a statement Thursday saying that Knoblauch's scheduled induction into the team's Hall of Fame had been canceled. The team was slated to honor Knoblauch on Aug. 23 at Target Field.

Knoblauch was released after posting $10,000 bond.

Knoblauch, 46, divorced Cheri Knoblauch in 2012. He was convicted of hitting a previous wife in 2010 and sentenced to a year of probation.

Knoblauch was the 1991 American League Rookie of the Year and a four-time All-Star with the Twins.

Eh, I don't count the Expos as Nats history. I did follow them starting in '02 once my Dad told me there was a good chance they were coming to D.C./NOVA.

Orlando Cabrera and Brad Wilkerson used to be my favorite players

 

[johnnyredstorm]

Bonds had teams walking the bases the loaded to avoid pitching to him :x

 

[dmxfury]

Bonds was great pre juice but he wasn't legendary (as in possibly the best to ever play). Still would've been a HOFer

 

[proshares]

As long as no one tries to tell me Hank ******* Aaron is the best ever, we're all good in here

 

[proshares]

BTW I still consider Bonds the GOAT when you put everything together at the plate, in the field and on the base paths.

But I'm one of those who counts the fact that there's been "cheating" in baseball since the beginning and I kinda toss it all out *shrugs*
