Bonds Aiming For 1,000?

77smbg9177 · 02-07-2007, 11:42 PM

According to Tom Verducci of SI.com, Barry Bonds told the Giants this winter through his agent that he has no plans to retire after the 2007 season and probably won't after the 2008 season either. He first asked the Giants for a realistic option for 2008, but didn't get it. Verducci says that Bonds's agent has raised the possibility of 1,000 home runs. Maybe Bonds doesn't like the idea of A-Rod coming along and passing his record? Barry Bonds is 42 years old and needs 266 home runs to reach 1,000. Will Bonds have what it takes to reach the 1,000 home run mark?

i laugh at this because best case scenario he can get back to 40 HR's a year which means he would have to play another 6+ years - there is no way his body will hold up that long so i say no way this will happen

Gee, That makes me laugh too.

Bonds is washed up. Is he going to be another Canseco that just don't know when to retire and still around 6,7 years past when he should of given up.

It is nearly impossible for Bonds to reach 1000 Homers, maybe if he plays until the age of 50..........

In his case Yes, I think that is in the realm of possabity.

...the drugs must be going to his head.

But if that were the case, he's been a drug user since he broke into the league -- his Ego is of unbelievable size and always has been.

If you ask mojo, she'll tell you that going to his head was the first way she knew he was on the juice.

Oh, and thanks.
