Why the Press and Baseball fan's Hate Barry Bonds ?

Now with the press has been pretty quite toward Barry Bonds after he broke Aarons Home run record.
I want to try to open up your eyes and show you the reason why people hate Barry Bonds.
The hate Barry Bonds because Barry became what we all wanted to become. That is if you ever played baseball as a young boy.

There it is. That is the reason why fans and the press the media hates Bonds.
Bonds had the guts to never give up on his dream to become the best player ever !!!!!!!!!!

And I say it to you now. If A-Rod has the chance to reach Barry's Home run record. Watch A-Rod get all the hate toward him that Barry went through. I can say that there will be one person for sure that will be there to see A-Rod break the home run record, that will be Bonds himself.

The one think I can say that Barry is a true man. He stands up what he believes in.
Bonds, will be in the Hall of Fame one day soon after he plays his last game and hits his last home run.
There is no telling how much longer Barry will play. I just hope that he leaves the game with his head held up high. Just like he has always have done walking to the home plate.

Barry Bonds will not ask you the respect from the fans or from the media and the press.
He stands there like a man and will take the heat and the questions that are thrown at him.
Think of it this way Bonds is like Baseballs John Wayne.
Is just like John Wayne, Bonds is a ICON.

Is there a problem with betting on sports ?

Is there a problem with betting on pro sports ? Or even with betting on college sports ?
I think there is . Everyday there is something in the papers and ESPN about the players and who is doing what and how well they are doing or not doing.
This just feeds us. It gives the fans the insight on the games and the players.

Why do you think they release the report on who is hurt and will play and not play .
This is candy to the bookies and to the fans who bets on there teams.

There is a lot wrong with Pro Sports today however it could get worse.
But thank God that I still be for the most part that the game is and the players are honest and dose not throw any of the games.
Even if it has been done before such as The Black Sox throwing the World series.
and Pete Rose betting on baseball.

Even if these problems came to past I still believe that for the most part the game is on the up and up.

Who will be the next great homerun king ?

Who will be the next homerun king ?
Will it be A-Rod or Ryan Howard, or could it even be Prince Fielder ?

My money is on A-Rod myself yet, Prince and Howard are younger than A-Rod. Prince is in his third year with 74 career homeruns and 44 homeruns for this season thus far. That is mind blowing.
However , Ryan Howard is in his forth year in the major's and has 38 homeruns for this season. But Howard is the fastest player to hit 100 homeruns for his career. That is saying something. Not Ruth or Bonds or even Aaron can say that they hit 100 homeruns faster than anyone.
These players are and were the best in the game.

Now just think about it. If A-Rod , Prince and Howard will change the record books after all A-Rod was hit 500 career homeruns faster than anyone else, take that Howard.
Oh yes by the way Howard your record of hitting 100 homeruns faster than anyone else is going to be tied by Prince or broken by Prince. But do not worry Ryan , you will set a new record very soon for hitting 200 homeruns faster then anyone else.

This is what am been posting about for the last few mths.
That all the records will be broken in baseball in the next few years. That is hitting records.
Everyday it seems that A-rod and Howard and Prince are just hitting bombs out of the park.

There are others that are doing as well , such as David Ortiz and Manny Ramires with Boston.
The game has changed and with all these great sluggers doing so well it is going to be fun to watch the results of there careers.
Yes , all of these players would love to win a World Series , yet , by breaking records and having your name being dropped with all time greats such as Aaron, Ruth, Mayes, and of course Barry Bonds, is saying something else they will become baseball ICONs.

And that is every young boys dream that plays baseball wants to be the next Babe Ruth.
So I ask you who will be next to be the King of Swing ?

Week 2 NFL picks by Lummpy

Week 1 in the NFL ,was great, and yes I was taken for a ride with some of the games.
However, most of the games went as I thought it would but there were 5 games that I was shocked by the results.
Now , that the season is in full effect. Going in the second week in the regular season. I am so hyped up by the all the news. Like New England stealing the signs and the plays that were being called by the New York Jets.
And Manning with the New York Giants , maybe out for weeks.
After being being slammed to the ground by Dallas. Now , if the season will be anything like week one. We our in for one hell of a ride.
Now for my picks for week 1.
Am 10 out 15 ! ! !
Now I know you may be thinking that is not 80%.
I hit about 70% for week 1 that is not to bad if I say so my self.

Now the results for the Monday Night games are 2 for 2.
Yes , that is right.
Thursday I was right by picking the Colts over
the Saints. And Sunday I was 7 out 12 , and of course I was 2 for 2 on Monday.
Well not bad if I do say so myself.
So here are my picks for week 2 in the NFL.
Cincinnati over Cleveland
St.Louis over San Francisco
Pittsburgh over Buffalo
Carolina over Houston
Minnesota over Detroit
Denver over Oakland
Seattle over Arizona
New England over San Diego
Colts over Tennessee
New York Giants over Green Bay
New Orleans over Tampa Bay
Jacksonville over Atlanta
Dallas over Miami
Chicago over Kansas City
New York Jets over Baltimore

Monday Night
Philadelphia over Washington

Sammy Sosa is now has 607 career Homeruns

With two more homeruns on Sunday hit by Sammy Sosa, that brings Sosa to 607 for his career.

A-Rod only 10 homeruns away to make history.

A-Rod hits his 52 homerun for he season. Which brings his career homeruns to 516.
Now, A-Rod is projected to have about 59 homeruns for the season , however , am hoping that A-Rod can hit at least 10 more homeruns. That would give A-Rod 526 homeruns for his career and it will put A-Rod in a very small group of sluggers that has hit 62 homeruns for a single season.
He would join Barry Bonds , Big Mac and Sammy Sosa.
This is yet another reason for the Yankees to resign A-Rod.
Why would the Yankees let go the best player in the game today ?
Well we have to wait and see if the Yankees will resign A-Rod.
