Maybe he wants to be OJ's cellmate?

Happy Thursday folks. The Throne was going to write a review of last night's Game 1 of the World Series, however everything I could possibly write about the Rockies was already covered in Saw IV.

So, while going through the news of the day I came upon this report from MSNBC and the San Fransisco Chronicle:

Marichal says Bonds won't play again
Hall of Famer Juan Marichal, the former San Francisco Giants pitcher, thinks Barry Bonds is going to retire, instead of landing on another team for the 2008 season. "I doubt it," Marichal told the San Francisco Chronicle. "I think he's ready to retire." Marichal said Bonds would have a hard time adjusting in a new locale. (San Francisco Chronicle)


Now, I'm not really sure why Marichal and Bonds were hanging out together, unless there was a meeting of the International Asshole Convention last night, but that must not be true because Joe Buck was still announcing Game 1 of the World Series. Who knows? Maybe they were at the spa together or something.

But, on to the story: The Throne isn't really sure how to react to this news. Bonds was either the greatest baseball player of the greatest fraud in history. Maybe a little of both. He'll be missed in San Fran and Pittsburgh, but probably nowhere else.

My only advice to readers is to sell all stocks they have in pharmaceutical companies ASAP.

There is only one Lord Elevation's throne. Enjoy ELtober.
