Default Barry Bonds Quietly Retires From Baseball - The Onion

"SAN FRANCISCO—In a sparsely attended press conference Monday, veteran left-fielder Barry Bonds, son of former Giants great Bobby Bonds, announced his retirement from the game of baseball with his legacy and dignity intact. "I know I'm only 22 home runs shy of breaking the record, but to me it was never about the numbers, and always about coming to the ballpark each day and having fun," Bonds said. "Hopefully, I've made a small impact on this sport." Bonds went on to thank the players, fans, press, and all of Major League Baseball for "making this experience a truly memorable one."

lol

Wish he did retire.

Alas, he is now a Giant for another year. He better pray to God he breaks that home run record at a home game.

Why? Bonds has nothing to be ashamed of. He's never even tested positive! It's all just a conspiracy because white america doesn't want a black man to succeed. If Bonds was white, we'd never hear these conversations.
