To him, the cuts he'd get from the MLBPA by appearing in video games or on baseball cards or other promotional tools isn't enough - he thinks he should be getting more. If EA or anyone else would pay him what he's asking for to appear in/on their merchandise, that company would automatically lose all rights to the rest of the MLBPA.
So yeah...Bonds is a greedy bastard. That sums it up pretty well.

I'm more pissed about them making the "fake" Damian Miller a fat black guy with a beard. But then again, that's my life as a Brewers fan..living in obscurity.

Well, what do you expect from Barry Bonds? He's desperate to become an immortal, so he got juiced to break immortal records, and now he's FAR too mighty to appear in video games or on baseball cards. That would be an insult to an immortal such as Barry Bonds.
Yes, Barry is a greedy bastard who wants to be God.

Yeah, I know..I was kidding.  What about the Top 100 prospects? Have any of their features been screwed with? |

I just created Barry Bonds and lowered Dowds rating so no team would pick him up.

I looked through atll the Barry bashing(not defending the bitch), and nobody brought up the fact that Michael Jordan did the same thing in every Basketball game made before Street.

Actually it was even earlier, NBA Live 2001, and i'd have to say MJ's a bit more respectable and better at his sport than Bonds is...just my thoughts.
