Bonds Wont Give Way to Adversity

Some of us remember Barry Bonds when he used to spend his time between lifting weights and working out as hard as he could to construct his strength for long nights of standing in left field and on the base paths following his many walks.His right knee no longer allows it and for that reason he is now carrying a few extra pounds. There has been many times this years when the thought of seeing him retire has crossed my mind.

He has promised himself to lose more than 28 pounds on this off season. The main reason for this is that the doctors have told the MLB slugger that carrying such an amount of weight is not good for his knee since he already has three surgeries on it.Barry Bonds is now 41 years old and he just hit his 704 home-run, and as he still defends his swing against anybody and he is third on the career home run list, only 10 more to tie Babe Ruth's 714, but still he is not the same youngster that hit homers at the same rate he has in recent years.He is player that knows what he wants and he is determined not to let an injury force him to retire, he struggles to be back on the field and resume his hunt after Aaron's mark of 755. I am sure there are a lot of people on the baseball world who would prefer that Bonds falls short of his record, and an example of the upcoming book that alleges the use of steroids by Bonds late in his carreer.

For now I will wait and see just how strong his knee is, something nobody will know until the off season, when he really tests it and tries to regain strength in his legs.About the Author: Cathy Jones writes on sports betting and gambling one of the fastest growing online industries and she is one of the top senior article writers for http://www.envivosports.
