Barry Bonds, Buried?

·1 min

Barry Bonds would’ve been a Hall of Famer if he even had average seasons post-1998. And now… the Mark Fainaru-Wada and Lance Williams story does look damning, I must say.

Apparently Bonds was one of those people who had roid rage even before he (allegedly) had roids:

If Bonds told you to do something, you had to drop everything and do it. If you were slow to comply or if you tried to explain why it wasn’t such a good idea, Bonds would get right up in your face, snarling, calling you a “punk bitch,” repeating what he wanted and saying, “Did I f—— stutter?” You had to suck it up and take the abuse and the humiliation – everyone did.
