This is what makes Hank Aaron be on my Mt. Rushmore.

The total bases that guy claimed is staggering.

Barry Bond's hat on anyone but him

Baseball ain't dead. I've heard people say this for the last 10 years. And with the rule changes, it has a bounce in its step.

Tony Gwynn career total bases: 4259

Barry Bonds career total bases: 5976

And that doesn’t even take into account Bonds having the most walks of all time

I should have said bases per. Obviously Bonds' 22+ year career and 3000 AB with some of the best shit BALCO ever produced vs. a grinding fundamental hitter with half a pouch of Red Man in his cheek every day during a shortened career isn't quite equal.

Barely, and walks don't count.

Aaron was the better hitter of the two. And Aaron's dick didn't turn into a tic-tak from steroids.

Aaron didn’t have to face roided up pitchers that could throw over 75.

Bonds>>>

This is the precise moment when Barry Bonds knew he had to start taking steroids. The very next season he showed up with a head as square as Albert Pujols'. Dude was fucking around, blown away by how massive Canseco and McGwire were and he went all in. LOL @ Chewy "basing" his entire weak-ass argument on Barry fuckin Bonds. :L

Dumb. My scrawny ass could throw 85 in high school.

I could throw high 70's with zero training and I played 1B.

The most amazing part is that I think Chewy actually believes this shit and he fashions himself a quasi baseball historian. wow

I could touch 80 in high school. Threw 10 pitches a few months ago and topped out at 68 and my shoulder was sore for a few days

Yeah, I always was sore as hell with a dull ache every time I threw BP. I could touch 80 too but my shit was flat as a pancake. I remember actually getting a little wiggle in my two-seam a time or two and that was super exciting. Most people who didn't at least play HS baseball have absolutely zero concept of the skill level of MLB pitchers and what they can do under intense pressure. They're machines.

I think I could hit high 50's right now and if I did, I'd be in for an MRI on Monday morning with likely nerve damage.
