Fans love Bonds
Barry Bonds was voted by the fans to start in his 14th all-star appearence earlier today. I know the game is in San Francisco but even still.. this proves that the fans for the most part, couldn't give a crap what he may have been on..

Re: Fans love Bonds
I don't think that proves anything. It is just a popularity contest and Bonds is popular rather its good pr or bad.

Re: Fans love Bonds
I don't see it that way at all. Everyone I know would vote for who they like and not reward those they don't like..

Re: Fans love Bonds
The front page of espn.com says "Depite a lackluster season, fans voted Barry Bonds as an all-star starter"

That "lackluster season" is a .304/.516/.603 line (The .516 OBP leads the majors) with 16 home runs. Oh, and he's 5-for-5 on stolen base attempts.

Perhaps he's having a "lackluster season" because he only has 40 RBIs. But that's just a function of how terrible his team is, not how "lackluster" a season he's having

Oh, and I definitely would not take the reuslts of all-star voting to say that fans "love" Barry Bonds. He's having a great year, and the fans rewarded him for it. I think the reaction he gets in opposing ballparks, is more an indication of other fans' love for him

Re: Fans love Bonds
He's definitely having a great year.. I'm not sure what the hell espn is talking about. Maybe it's not a great year...for him.

Anyway, I just find it hard to believe that fans would reward him even if he is having a good year, if it was true that they are that pissed off about him chasing Aaron with the steroid cloud hovering above..
