Gossip On Sports - The Latest Dish On and Off the Field

Boras, Bonds, and Baseball Legacies

by Jodie Lynn Boduch on December 2nd, 2007

Frank Coffey and his satire specialists at www.eTrueSports.com are kindred spirits when it comes to poking fun at certain, shall we say, “characters” in the sports world. Two gentlemen whose personalities render them sports jokes waiting to happen are agent Scott Boras and everyone’s favorite Steroid King Homerun King Under Indictment, Barry Bonds.

Thanks to some solid investigative reporting by Frank & Company, new information has called into question a shady element of Scott Boras’ past. This Very Important Update, provided by Frank in the comments section of this post, is too significant to remain buried. We’re repeating the breaking news here:

Scott Boras vehemently denied a former teammate’s allegation that the knee injury which ended his minor league baseball playing career was caused by diving for a loose quarter, not for a line drive, as the agent has previously claimed.

Will others step forward to confirm the claim? Or are these the words of a former teammate later scorched by Boras at the negotiating table? Stay tuned!

And lucky for us, eTrueSports trekked up to Cooperstown, NY to get a behind-the-scenes peek at the Hall of Fame. This previously hush-hush prototype of Barry Bonds’ plaque has been leaked to satirists and snarky sports humor chicks everywhere:

Remember, you heard it from eTrueSports first and Gossip on Sports second!
