If his options were so limited, then why was he able to get a $16 million contract?

I hope he sits. Injury, w/e, he doesnt deserve the record.

No, $16 million for the revenue generated from 60 sold out games after the All Star break for a team that won't remotely be in playoff contention. Originally Posted by I Are Baboon

true story! I think it is a great idea. He is going to break the record and people are going to pay big bucks to see it. Originally Posted by Dale Mabry

his sexual preference has nothing to do with the fact that he will break Hammerin' Hanks Record. Originally Posted by I Are Baboon

I think its pretty obvious at this point that he will get the record, hell its the only thing he is playing for. He told his manager numerous times last year he wasnt going to pinch hit then play the field, he was saw sleeping in the lockeroom before and during games. Hes a chump and I wish no one wouldve signed him at all.

The difference between winners and losers is that winners do things that losers don't want to do.

People seem to conveniently forget that you are innocent until proven guilty in this country. They've been after Barry for years and have spent millions of our taxpayers money and they have nothing on the guy.
ESPN was all over the airwaves a few months ago claiming an indictment was a week away. Nothing happened and they never recanted their story. Now they've started ANOTHER grand jury and what have they found? NOTHING.
I will be clapping when he breaks the record and shuts up the media and all the other hypocrites out there.Getting bigger is a battle and the weapon is my fork.
