in Trading Cards & Memorabilia Forum
A few years ago I spent 2 grand on Barry Bonds Tiffany RC BGS 9.5 and about another grand in other psa 10s RC,, and now I cant get a bus ticket to the next town with it , its virtually worthless. I am hoping the Yankees go out and get this bum because I need him to create some value in his cards so I can get something back. By playing for the Yankees , I believe he will do just that , create some buzz !COME ON HANK SIGN THE BUM !

    The guy can hit a HR every 10 ABs until he is 50. Its too bad how he was basically forced to end his career.

    He is the #1 most feared hitter in Baseball History. I loved watching him bat every single time.

    looks like the Yankees may just sign him, Hank wants him pretty bad, they can sign him for around 400k for the rest of the yr and not have to give up a single prospect. Bonds has said that if he does play this year that he will donate his entire salary to charity.

    He is the greatest embarassment to the game at this point; his steroid infused ass should sit on the sidelines forever.

    i think he would make a fantastic defensive replacement and pinch-runner, this move must be made!

    You said it! The only reason he is the most feared player is because his head is the size of a watermelon! Who would want to face that guy?

    Well, I don't think the Yankees will sign him , although they may be the only team that might be able to take the negative PR hit for doing so .

    But why ?
  • TNTonPMSTNTonPMS Posts: 2,279 ✭✭
    The Yankees Have A-Rod who everyone in NY wants to see break the HR record , there is no good reason to sign Barry Bonds now , we do not need a side show circus act .

    The moral of the story? NEVER buy cards of a player at their peak hype/popularity. You will be very sorry later.

    It will cost NY alot of the support that they have worked to
    get from PARENTS. Many responsible parents do not want
    their kids exposed to the kind of moral challenges that
    BB brings to the table.

    Barry doesn't give a damn about the fans of New York or his prospective teammates. All he cares about is two things and two things only: reaching 3000 hits and 800 homeruns.

    Irregardless of what he might do his cards are junk and will always be junk!!

    That is exactly the point.

    On the PR-front, NY has been operating in crisis mode for a long time.
    They have made some progress; BB would further complicate the path
    they claim they want to take.

    I hear ya, I dont think they will sign him anyways they got Giambi and now Nady, with things really starting to heat up in the AL East I dont think the Yanks would want any major distractions.
