Did Anderson break in the can?

ooohhh!!:eek:

The posted article link states that he's still in jail.

Bonds trainer and friend Greg Anderson was convicted in the BALCO case on grand jury charges, served time in jail and returned to prison when he refused to testify again against Bonds. He remains in jail.

Who cares what happens to the bum now?

The time to nail him was 2 years ago. They did nothing and they let him do terrible damage to baseball. All this does is lock the door to the barn after it's been burned down.

Meaningless.

Yeah if, only this could have happened before he broke Hanks record.:mad:

See, not only is he a cheat and a liar, but he's also forcing me to root for A-Rod. I don't like him, but I would much rather he had the all-time HR record than Barry Bonds.

Have fun in jail, Barry. When you get a federal indictment, you're as good as finished (see Vick, Michael).

Hmmm .... ARod tells Boras to not bother showing up for negotiations, the Yanks look like they'll be spending almost $400 Mil. without actually improving the team, Jeter apparently has tax problems and now Bonds is is being in indicted.

What a great week. :D

ESPN reporting Greg Anderson was just released from prison. Given that he was being held for refusing to testify against Bonds, the only logical assumption is that his position has changed.

Bonds is dead meat.

As an aside, I never understood Anderson's stance. There are very few people in my life that I would willingly go to jail for. My brother. My parents. Two or three extremely close friends. That's it. Everyone else? Sorry, I'll send you care packages every week.

No one has said it here, but this is a very sad day for baseball. Sure, we knew, or had good reason to believe, that Bonds' record was tainted, but this indictment and any resulting conviction will truly be a huge stain on the game.

Of course, the stain was there, indictment or not. But now it's official, not a theory.

Yeah, screaming about the race card and all that. It was pathetic. Typical Stephen A., he always thinks it's about race.

I know, right? What a shocker. :rolleyes:

No, Stephen A., it doesn't have to do with the fact that he's black. It has to do with the fact that he's a lying, cheating a-hole of epic proportions.

When will people realize that the coverup is almost always worse than the crime? Giambi realized this, fessed up and is pretty much in the clear. Bonds? Deny, deny, deny...and look what happens.

The fact that he's a jerk is the cherry on top, too. No one likes a jerk, and no one likes a liar.

When you combine the two you can pretty much guarantee that there's a target on your back.

      Top Tier Orioles

      By Bahama O's Fan · Posted

      I was listening to a Fox Sports Radio broadcast (sorry, can't remember who it was). They put the teams into tiers. The O's were in the top tier along with the Yankees, Dodgers and Phillies. I don't know how long it's been that during the season, someone would have called us top tier. And to think, this is happening with two of our starters out for the year and Bradish and Kremer have spent time on the IL. We are doing this with Hays, Mullins, Urias and Santander starting the season on an extreme slump. We have done this with Mateo starting almost every day (which most people thought would be a horrible thing). We have done this with a bullpen that has been very inconsistent. Imagine if we get some of this stuff fixed and some people back to just playing to their career averages.

      I'm not sure what we are doing with Vieira. I figured the trade was about the prospect and they had to take him and his salary to make it happen. I expected him to be DFA right away and they would try to send him to the minors to work on him.

      Btw, in the 4 game series against the Jays last year (July 31-Aug. 3rd), it is insane that Mountcastle hit for an .846(!) avg with an OPS of 1.932!
