Sheffield Paints Bonds as Control Freak

Filed under: — dan @ 10:48 am

And yet Barry Bonds wonders why people don’t like him? From the sounds of it, he’s got some serious issues with control and having to ‘one-up’ everyone else. I’d tend to believe Gary Sheffield over something like this, it makes you wonder if the BALCO drugs had any effect on Bonds’ personality or not. And how his wife could put up with him…

“The only thing Greg Anderson does is what Barry tells him to do,” Sheffield says. “Barry ran everything. If I’m training and if he sees Greg making me do one curl too many, it’s an argument: ‘I told you, don’t have him do no more than he needs!’ So I knew Greg was a puppet. All these guys around [Bonds] were puppets.

“They used to confide in me about how they hated it. I told them, ‘You knew what you were getting into. You accept his money. You accept the status when you’re around him. But you don’t want to deal with the backlash of what comes out of his mouth, and you want to complain to me.’”
