I love Bonds as a player! There is no one close to him, drugs may be a factor, comparing Bonds and McGwire is a joke...
Bonds gets on base almost every other time, Bonds was pitched around more than Big Mac true but McGwire got his share of walks that year too......
Bonds numbers all over SB , Walks, AVG, No one player has ever been pitched aroung like Barry...He gets two three good pitches a game and somehow he homers every three days, all this while approaching 40 and showing no let up....He still need about 115 homers to catch Hank Aaron...

They both do them or did when they played. Hate to say it but I don't really like McGwire for some reason. His attitude or something has always turned me off. He said when they were contemplating a players strike he would retire and not back the union, this when he was trying to break the homerun record. Now I hate player stikes and all that but funny how when they could help him (and they did plenty in his career) he was proud to be in but when he needed to break a record the union business suddenly didn't fit into his personal agenda. Like the other hotdogs it's that "me first" attitude I didn't care for. He's certainly not the only one but even if he is a big Irishman but I just don't care for him, not completely sure why.
