We're all patiently waiting for the John Cena nudes, but his opponents are tired of waiting.

It's the same reason Luthor keeps trying to prove Superman isn't perfect. When you write someone as the unquestionable moral paragon, you need someone to call that into question so they can be proven wrong.

E: also they're trying to recapture the magic of the Punk promo where he compared Cena to the Yankees.

Because John Cena is a terrible boring character no matter how many "fiery" promos he cuts pandering and spewing catchphrases.

John Cena promos exist in a world of their own. They don't make sense in the context of what was said before, they don't make sense in the context of what was said after, but they're there.

Also I can't find any good wrestletweets to accompany this so ho hum.

Why did he exclude it? Steroids? I mean, Ben Johnson didn't get a gold medal, maybe it's reasonable that Bonds doesn't get a record.

Barry Bonds did every steroid ever invented. He was also the greatest baseball player of all time. Some people have a hard time reconciling these facts.

I may disagree with him, but if you want to mention that you feel there should be an asterisk next to the record or that he doesn't belong in the HoF that's one thing. It's ludicrous though to deny that the man hit the most home runs in MLB history while criticizing someone else for mentioning the wrong record holder while talking about how important and famous the record is.

Yep. I mean, it's pretty easy for me to sit here and talk about your sports, where the sport I enjoy that is the most analogous to baseball, cricket (both bat/ball sports, both take ages, both can be boring and riveting in equal measure) gives no advantages at all for steroid use. Being stronger in cricket does you no good, and you're not taxing your body to the point where enhanced recovery time will help you.

Thauros posted:

If WADA or USADA got their hands on a Barry Bonds sample today that was frozen while he was playing, would he test positive? I mean, I get that he never tested positive for anything while he was playing, but isn't there a ton of evidence he used while he was hitting all of those runs?

On the other hand, maybe it's not fair to Barry and Hank, because they didn't ever test positive for anything. Hearsay and conjecture are pretty lovely ways to judge talented athletes. It's a complicated issue.

Sid rules. I don't care how many times he stabbed Arn. Plus he used to blow off TV tapings to play pro softball which is loving hillarious :)

Barry Bonds tested positive for a head elephantiasis that he battled for the rest of his career, its a miracle he played at all, a true warrior hero spirit.

Bonds would have been the greatest baseball player whoever walked the earth (except for Ken Griffey Junior and Willie Mays) steroids or not, but he played in an era where you had to juice to keep up, he was just really good at juicing too.

It would have been neat if they stayed heel and face but never caring for each other alignment. Like Harper would cheat or attack someone else but Rowan wouldn't care while Harper doesn't mind that Rowan keeps it fair in the ring.
