This looks like something a certain sports forum member would do
And I bet the prosecution subpoenas this guy! :rofl:



Bonds Sold Steroids To Nuns
Allegations from left field in jailed litigant's craziest suit ever

AUGUST 16--Meet Jonathan Lee Riches. The federal prisoner/habitual litigant recently scored headlines with his insane $63 billion lawsuit against Michael Vick (who allegedly stole Riches's dogs, sold them on eBay, and used the proceeds to buy weapons from the Iranian government). Riches, who is doing a decade in prison for fraud, is at it again, this time filing a loony--though quite funny--complaint again Barry Bonds, baseball commissioner Bud Selig, and Hank Aaron's bat. In his lawsuit, Riches, pictured in the below mug shot, weaves an intricate conspiracy theory involving television ratings, steroids, the cracking of the Liberty Bell, Colombian narco-terrorists, and secretly recorded conversations for which journalists Robert Novak and Judith Miller have transcripts. A copy of the Bonds complaint can be found here. Riches's August 13 lawsuit, which he filed in U.S. District Court in Indiana, is the 17th federal complaint he has filed since January 2006. Imprisoned in South Carolina, Riches has filed his lawsuits in 15 separate federal jurisdictions, presumably moving state-to-state to avoid sanctions over the filing of frivolous actions.

3. If it's a reference to me,
then it's not appreciated. I don't flame nor do I get engage in that.

More than happy to have normal discussions, not these kinds.

4. Oh PRETZEL....you can't possibly think it's you.
I enjoy, in kind of a bamboo chutes up my fingernails kinda way == since you're relentless == , arguing/debating/chatting/discussing (pick your verb) the Bonds trial, and in particular why the prosecution is failing worse than the chumps who insisted there were WMD's in Iraq.

So no, I can assure it's not you;

6. Looks to me
like this guy might be a member of the Bonds haters....ridiculous charges without a shred of evidence are all symptoms exhibited by your typical hater.

9. Ahhh look at the twins up above...
Let me guess--- you're probably sharing a milkshake--- two straws or one???? probably one. Got your favorite blanky over the both of you.... Mom is cooking up a couple of pop tarts for lunch, looking forward to your the next showing of Barney. Then it's nap time.... but before you fall asleep, you both kiss your Barry Bond's Bobble heads.....

Maybe---just maybe you're Siamese Twins.... never thought of that?

10. You know
Edited on Thu Mar-05-09 01:07 PM by Upton
when I first saw this thread started by cboy, suggesting that "this looks like something a certain sports forum member would do"..I immediately began to wonder who he could be referring to, though there are at least 3 possible choices...guess who's prime candidate #1?

11. Based on the way the OP writes, I would have assumed the OP to prime
candidates 1, 2, and 3.

14. cboy and myself employ a kind of objectivity

16. This guy is brilliant
Amusing satire on this whole boring Bonds situation. I bet he has a book deal in the works. You gotta do something to amuse yourself when you're in the clink....why not this?
