Why Barry Bonds will never be the greatest of all-time

There is no question, nor should it even be an argument, that Barry Bonds is the best baseball player anyone under 35 has ever seen. The argument can also be made, and it has been, that Bonds is the greatest of all-time. But he's not, nor will he ever be.

? ? ? i don't think your comments toward bonds are correct look at his stats and if hes popular or not hes still doing his job and dont dare talk about ty cobb one of the no wait the best contact hitter of all time much respect to honus wagner. 9/28/2005
Bill Burgess Your take on Cobb is off. His rep since he retired stems from what sports writers wrote, same for Ruth. Babe visited sick kids. Ty built them a modern hospital, still going strong. Babe signed autographs; so did Cobb, and he founded a college scholarship to send them thru college, still going strong. He also supported lots of widows and kids. I collect opinions on who was the best. So far, 220 of those who saw Cobb and Ruth vote for Cobb, 30 for Babe. These were owners,managers,coaches,umps,star players, such as Mack,Huggins,Hornsby,Cochrane,Simmons,E.Collins,Speaker,Sisler,T.Connolly,211 more. Your lack of awareness beyond what certain hack,pulp writers wrote, is unfair,destructive and ignorant to the best ballplayer who ever stole home 55 times, won 12 BA tiltles in 13 yrs., won 8 SA. titles and came in 2nd in SA 8 more times.

Jim It's frustrating to read such ignorance...What does his attitude or personality have to do with being the greatest ever. Make a real argument next time, instead of sounding an ignorant fool. Image only means something to you pathetic writers who try and make a living off of writing about someone else. This is a terrible article, and I won't even read page two of it. 10/24/2003
Brendon So you think that Bonds will never be a legend? Thats interesting, but that has nothing to do with whether or not he is the greatest player of all time. Being the greatest of all time has nothing to do with being a legend. From what I hear there were some pretty great players in the negro leagues, but few of them would be legends judging by your standards. Does that make them worse baseball players? I don't think so. Whether or not you like Bonds has nothing to do with whether or not he is the greatest player of all time. 9/27/2003
Josh Williams He will be the greatest of all time because never in his history has he had many major injuries and if he plays for a few more years at the rate he's going, he's just going to blow everybody away! 9/26/2003
