Interesting story and letter. Personally, I can see why people are staying away from Bonds and Clemens, but I'd personally be willing to give Gibbons a shot if I were in a position to do so. |

I am actually desperate today.

They say...people will resort to saying things they know aren't true when they are desperate.

And you have on cue demonstrated what I have hallucinated from day one in regards to you.

I actually created Fergie in part to attack you Crit without you knowing it was me. Some of your takes were so lame that I almost came at you as myself a few time... |

I can certainly see why no one wants to sign Bonds, but this Gibbon's kid seems like he is reformabe, and has done one key thing that Bonds has not; admitted to his mistakes.
Someone will sign him. |

My guess is that once the issue dies down, he'll quietly be given an opportunity to come through somebody's minor league system.
As for Bonds -- any time he can shrivel up and blow away in the wind, that's fine with me. |

The problem is that Gibbons' skills were in decline. His numbers were dropping anyway. And it's not like he's a good enough defender to justify his offensive numbers.
Still worth taking a chance on, perhaps, but not surprising he hasn't been picked up. |

"Perhaps the worst thing that can happen is to reach into the refrigerator and come out with something that you cannot identify at all. You literally do not know what it is. Could be meat, could be cake. Usually, at a time like that, I'll bluff. "Honey, is this good?" "Well, what is it?" "I don't know. I've never seen anything like it. It looks like...meatcake!" "Well, smell it." (snort, sniff) "It has absolutely no smell whatsoever!" "It's good! Put it back! Somebody is saving it. It'll turn up in something." Thats what frightens me. That someone will consider it a challenge and use it just because it's in there." -- George Carlin |
