View Full Version : Why is the Greatest Baseball Player of all Time Unsigned?
arealviking 03-18-2008, 07:35 PM I don't get it... how is this even possible?
Billy Crystal gets signed for one day and yet the Greatest Baseball Player of all Time Goes Unsigned.
You would think even the sad sack Yankees would take him.

bobo_da_clown 03-18-2008, 09:49 PM cause Ty Cobb is dead
DestroVega 03-18-2008, 10:10 PM this story is a joke.
arealviking 03-18-2008, 11:39 PM this story is a joke.
How do you figure?!?!
:rolleyes:
It's called 'Collusion' I know thats a pretty big word for a 'Pittsburg Butt Pirate' fan like yourself but it's the TRUTH.

stinkynutz 03-19-2008, 01:28 AM hmmm...I wonder why?...
tikitommy 03-19-2008, 02:00 AM Roided up or not, Barry is the biggest clubhouse cancer in all of sports.
Pondo 03-19-2008, 02:22 AM cause Ty Cobb is dead
:bigup:
SleepingWarrior 03-19-2008, 03:36 AM Gee, it couldn't be because the guy is a roid head whom the government is trying to throw in jail is it?
DestroVega 03-19-2008, 07:43 AM How do you figure?!?!

Collusion my ass... who wants his fucking attitude and locker room cancer on their squad?... no one.
I hope he enjoys retirement, fucking scumbag.
I'm also not a fan of anything Pittsburgh, dope.

the cough syrup wore off a few hours ago and I think your right...a scumbag w/ attitude that is a cancer in the locker room...
:o

Elslavo 03-20-2008, 10:12 AM I hope the Mets pick him up... but I think he would rather DH. I read somewhere that he was looking to plau in July, and it makes sense for a playoff push.
Deathshead 03-20-2008, 02:44 PM greatest player of all time my ass. I did kinda think the Yankees would sign him
wsuraider 03-22-2008, 12:22 PM Because he's old and too expensive.
LonghornsNo1 03-22-2008, 12:57 PM Because no one likes him very much.
KilgoreTrout 03-22-2008, 04:23 PM Yeah he was a douchebag before the roids.
Badhandhaney 03-22-2008, 04:31 PM Because players only increase revenue in 2 ways, adding to win totals, or (star power) marketing/merch.
These 2 factors increase ticket sales and other revenue streams.
If Barry were to help a team win, teams are worried it WOULD NOT add to the normal win revenue because of the bad will Barry has created with the public.
Teams are also worried this ill will and legal problems plus a media circus will ALSO cost them money.
So basically GM's think they stand to earn more money "as is", because although Barry could help them win, it would do MORE damage than those wins are worth.
It is all about money. And Barry one way or the other has burned his bridges with America.
Deathshead 03-23-2008, 04:18 AM Because he's old and too expensive.
When has that ever stopped the Yankees?
GRATEFUL DEAD 03-23-2008, 05:04 AM Could it be that he's a total ASSHOLE?????????
Ummmmmmmmmmmm............... YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
StumpMerrill 03-24-2008, 04:30 AM It would be hard to sign the greatest baseball player of all time when he's been dead for 60 years.
droozilla 03-24-2008, 12:25 PM What the fuck is this shit.....
Hammerin' Hank, still the best, check the stats.
That Von Hayes things is funny though.
arealviking 04-07-2008, 03:39 AM He's still not signed... :(
Maybe the Giants?

arealviking 04-08-2008, 03:14 AM He's still not signed... :(

Anyone Think he may sign for the League minimum?
(Plus Bonuses ?)

DestroVega 04-08-2008, 06:47 AM Give it up, no one is signing this guy. The only bench he could be on this season is cold and cement.
Pussah2 04-08-2008, 06:59 AM Give it up, no one is signing this guy. The only bench he could be on this season is cold and cement.
come june or july someone will sign him.
Valve 04-08-2008, 08:02 AM Could it be that he's a total ASSHOLE?????????
Ummmmmmmmmmmm............... YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Indeed.

nuge67 04-08-2008, 08:53 AM If Giambi keeps getting hurt and they trade Matsui, I could see the Yanks looking at hime.
What is crazy is that no one has signed Piazza, even as a DH.
Wicked Red Sox 04-08-2008, 08:56 AM If Giambi keeps getting hurt and they trade Matsui, I could see the Yanks looking at hime.
What is crazy is that no one has signed Piazza, even as a DH.
yanks will pay Bonds 30 mill for Half a Season
nuge67 04-08-2008, 08:58 AM yanks will pay Bonds 30 mill for Half a Season
NEVER, 32 million with a playoff bonus
jasondylan 04-08-2008, 11:46 AM Cant wait until he rubs the face on Babe Ruth's plaque Its a tradition among Yankee steroid users.
Sun Devil 04-08-2008, 12:11 PM Because:
1. He is a known locker room distraction
2. He is a magnet for reporters, even on a slow news day
3. He doesn't play defense
4. He has been indicted for felony federal charges
5. He is disrespected by fans
6. No AL team needs a high priced DH right now
more than that, but those reasons all stand alone. Together, there's no chance he gets signed until a team really needs him.
TruckdriverRick 04-08-2008, 12:32 PM Where have you gone Joe DiMaggio
our nation turns its lonely eyes to you :cool:

7. Hes a giant asshole.
BigShorty 04-08-2008, 12:36 PM If Giambi keeps getting hurt and they trade Matsui, I could see the Yanks looking at hime.
What is crazy is that no one has signed Piazza, even as a DH.
Probably the injury-plagued season he had last year - even as a DH. If healthy, he can still rake though.
TruckdriverRick 04-08-2008, 12:42 PM If Giambi keeps getting hurt and they trade Matsui, I could see the Yanks looking at hime.
What is crazy is that no one has signed Piazza, even as a DH. man if Cashman was ever to bring up his name I would hope the Steinbrenners would do 3 things quickly:
1) Laugh at him
2) fire him
3) hold a press conference to tell the whole world why they canned him
arealviking 04-14-2008, 02:22 AM Still Unsigned. :(
Collusion. :mad:
WEAK!
-ARV
Omnipotent_1 04-14-2008, 07:16 AM No collusion in any organized sense. Nobody simply wants the headaches and bad press. Bonds is yet to have another day in court defending charges of perjury, a very serious charge, BTW, and the one that brought down Marion Jones. Bonds is fucked... and it couldn't happen to a nicer guy. :)
I feel bad for his kid, though.
sppinach 04-14-2008, 02:29 PM Still Unsigned. :(
Collusion. :mad:
WEAK!

Pay him to hit wiffle balls in your back yard you dick.
MikeyJJ 04-14-2008, 04:55 PM Why is the Greatest Baseball Player of all Time Unsigned?
Last time I checked both Jeter and A-rod had pretty nice contracts...
arealviking 04-15-2008, 01:25 AM Pay him to hit wiffle balls in your back yard you dick.
I would but I already paid you $20. last weekend to entertain my kids ! :p
Yucko never knew you would end up HERE!
:p
-ARV
arealviking 04-27-2008, 12:51 AM Looks like someone FINALLY hit one into Barry Bonds Cove...
:rolleyes:
-ARV
Stlstg 04-27-2008, 07:50 AM I would love to see him get signed somewhere in New York, just so we could see his reaction to all the retarded press there. They broke down Randy Johnson in a short time, and I would love to see Barroid have to deal with that. He's an ass (with holes in it), and it would be fun to watch.
DestroVega 04-27-2008, 08:50 AM he's also not the greatest player of all time.
hope he enjoys watching the season from his couch.
FivOh 04-27-2008, 05:36 PM THIS IS WHY!

BIGBRANDON 04-30-2008, 12:33 AM Your smokin crack if you think Barry Bonds is the best player ever he's not better than Mays,Cobb,Ruth,Ted Williams,Stan Musial,Rodgers Hornsbey,Joe DiMaggio,Hank Aaron hell that just a few off the top of my head.With out the roids he is nothin that's why his bitch ass ain't playin.
But there is 1 team that will sign him The San Quintin Prison Punks hopefully he is playing there by the end of the year.
