ESPN Working On A Barry Bonds Reality Show




Posted by Jeff Chan Categories: Athletes, Editorial, MLB, Rumors,

Barry Bonds Reality Show?The proposed Barry Bonds reality show would run throughout the upcoming 2006 MLB season, and would be a documentary of sorts while Bonds attempts to break Hank Aaron’s all-time home run record.  Ugh, this would be a terrible idea, but then again the American viewer loves to watch people they hate, just look at Simon Cowell of American Idol, or Howard Stern.  Cameras for the proposed Barry Bonds show would be on and off the field.  Oh great - that is what Major League Baseball broadcasts needs, more idiotic cameras like the Fox catcher camera, audio mics on the bases, whoosh sounds in between replays, and in-game interviews with Bonds after at-bats where he is intentionally walked with a runner already on first.  We don’t need “Real World” style confessions where Bond’s family members discuss their frustration with pitchers walking Bonds, Bonds complaining about the batting order and the clean-up hitter leaving him stranded on base.  Hey Bonds, the last time you had a good batter behind you in the lineup for protection, you drove Jeff Kent out of town.
