Awesome onion article

http://www.theonion.com/content/news/nation_to_ken_griffey_jr_we_wish?utm_source=onion_rss_daily

For all those out there that love Ken Griffey Jr and want Barry Bonds to break both legs, have both arms fall out and never touch a bat again while he sits at home with his steroids and wonders why he is such a colossal tool

this reminds me
of the guy in a forum who thought the Hank Aaron awarded 50 lost homeruns story was real

I'm a sad panda as well.
We really did miss out on seeing what he would have been able to do if he could have stayed healthy.

Wonder if the Reds would give us Griffey
in exchange for Turbo and Weaver. The money is just about even.
If you look around the table and you can't tell who the sucker is, and then you see Bill Bavasi, it's him.

Maybe if we threw in
Cibney Bello and Fister.

That's so not funny
... okay, Cibney is.  But FISTER would probably end up their #4 starter within 1-2 years and then we'd watch him win 160 games for the Reds.

I don't really care if Bonds breaks it
since ARod will have broken it in a few years barring injury,
How good are you at answering direct questions, on a scale of 1 to 10? I'd say I'm very good.

i feel like complete crap now
Jeff Weaver is ours, and you can't have him

So weird
It's the Onion, so it's assumed this is a joke, except the tone wasn't at all satirical.  Methinks they wish it could've been different as well.

Damn that Riverfront Astroturf.  You know that's what did Junior in.
