Ten Reasons Why Barry Bonds' Trainer is Going Back to Jail
Jul 27, 2006 | 12:14PM | report this

Barry Bonds’ personal trainer Greg Anderson is headed back to prison. This is Anderson’s third trip to prison in less than a year. He is starting to feel more at home there than Bonds does in the Giants' clubhouse. For whatever the reason, Anderson is refusing to testify in court about Bonds. So why is Anderson sacrificing his free-life at the expense of baseball’s most vilified man? Here are a few possible theories:

10) The prison baseball system has a very lenient drug-testing policy, so Anderson’s chances of getting caught for supplying steroids to players just dropped 75 percent.

9) “He’s resigned to do whatever it takes to maintain his integrity,” said his attorney Paula Canny. Oh, so I guess Anderson’s integrity involves lying and cheating then.

8) He gets to make cool vanity license plates for his friends. Some of his previous work includes CHEAT25, ROIDRGE, and NOTGLTY.

7) “My Buddy, My Buddy, Wherever I go, he goes, My Buddy, My Buddy, I’ll teach him everything I know.” Since owning the My Buddy doll as children, the two made a pact to always stay best buds, and like the song says, Bonds might soon be following his friend into prison.

6) Bonds threatened to sit on Anderson’s head if he opened his mouth.

5) Anderson enjoys prison. Growing up around Bonds he was forced to become accustomed to an arrogant, selfish, not to mention large and sweaty person. This coincidently sounds very similar to the entire prison population, so Anderson should fit in famously.

4) 18 months should be long enough for Anderson to finally finish reading “Game of Shadows.”

3) Anderson needed some time to come up with cooler names for his future steroid concoctions besides “the cream” and “the “clear” which aren’t very hip according to today’s standards.

2) It beats working. With the steroid market plummeting this year, Anderson was forced to take a job as peanut vendor at A####mp;T Park.

1) Bonds’ has promised his friend something real nice if he rides out the prison sentence instead of testifying against him. Judging by Bonds’ history of kindness and generosity, Anderson isn’t going to be too stoked when a shiny new black Prius shows up in his driveway. Thanks for the thought Barry!      www.oldskoolsports.com
