@Coming Into The Game, ♪♪ ♪♪♪ #J23 - The Superstar Receiver,...: Dear lord. Has the Marty York virus infected this site too?

I can't even think of an American equivalent to that jagoff, that's how bad he is.

Someone help me out here. Crappy, rumor mongering sports reporter that burns bridges at both ESPN and FSN, loses newspaper column and ends up writing for a free mag most respectable people wouldn't wipe their ass with. Fred Edelstein without the jail term, maybe?

That said, the Japanese route did wonders for my namesake so...maybe not such a bad career move for Bonds.

.
I have to add that this MetroNews is one of those free transit newspapers, and Marty York writes a piece of shit sports column that illustrates his fantasys.

Like during the winter he suggested Roger Clemens and Andy Petitte were close to re-uniting with the Toronto Blue Jays. And the aforementioned Bartolo Colon / White Sox.

I could have reported that Barry Bonds was going to play in Japan. Not exactly rocket science.
