You do realize that this is just a wasted vote, right?

I know that no one else is, but do you mind explaining your vote?

My purpose of starting to vote Barry Bonds put him in the minds of others to be voted out soon. I don't expect him to be "off the island" just yet, but if someone doesn't put him in the minds of others that his time is approaching, the mistake may be made that he would end as "King of the Mountain" and be the last remaining name.

I would view this as a horrible mistake. With the cloud that hovers around Barry Bonds regarding steroids and other questions of conduct, that doesn't mean he doesn't belong in the conversation as among the best that ever played, but the Greatest of a franchise as storied as the Giants should not be someone with the question marks that Bonds has. I expected Bonds to go deep into the process, but there are very few players still left that remain that I'll be profoundly disappointed if he's still there after they have been voted away.

So you don't think he's the worst out of the remaining list? What if there's a tie between two players at the end of the week and the player you actually think is the worst stays? Like skater said, it's essentially a wasted vote.

If you want to bring up Bonds, go ahead and make the case that he's the worst of the list. If it comes down to Mays and Bonds, make the case then.

I would view it a mistake even if he was in the decision for the final decision. I'll be disappointed if he's in the final 3.

Prepare to be disappointed, then.

What do you expect to happen that I should expect disappointment?

Bonds will most certainly make the final 3.

Clark 2, Cepeda 2, Bonds 1. Stanford, vote.

3 times in a row, it has been tied and up to Stanford. I blame the "Bonds vote".

I think the Cepeda is the least deserving of the two.
