TMZ: Barry Bonds Strikes Out with Wife

Love Him Not, Hate Him…

TMZ has learned Barry Bonds’ wife has filed for legal separation.

Bonds and Liz Watson were married in 1998. They have one daughter together. It is his second marriage.

Liz greeted Bonds when he hit his history making 755th* home run in 2007.

The papers, filed Friday in L.A. County Superior Court, cite irreconcilable differences.

Liz has requested joint legal and physical custody of their 10-year-old daughter. She’s also asking for spousal support.

Can someone show me some real, empirical evidence that Barry Bonds ever struck out with his wife? Any evidence at all? This witch hunt is ridiculous.

It's a trap.

Yes, this is just more slander by Nowitski. Barry Bonds is the kindest, bravest, warmest, most wonderful human being I've ever known.

Wrong. He's #2, behind Kobe Bryant.

"Bonds' Wife Intentionally Walks" might have been a better headline.

I bet 8 was funny and bagged on me.

7 is pretty good.

Actually, BL, I could believe this of you.

Re: No. 9, as regards No. 8 -- you are half right.

So why did you think better of the purple diamond comment, BL?

Heh. Sounds good. But BL and I are not getting along today, so I am prepped for him to throw an elbow, we might say.

... purple diamond

I don't like to bag on people that are having domestic problems.

Yeah, how do they explain "Bonds on Bonds"? It's right there in the title.

I guess now the feds will postpone the trial another couple of years, hoping the Missus will flip and save them.

Barry Bonds isn't in prison.
no, just under the thumb of the federal government for the last 7 years.

Hey, who isn't. *rimshot!*
   18. Gambling Rent Czar Posted: June 09, 2009 at 06:55 AM (#3210792)
Point taken.
But i doubt it is the extreme that Barry has had to deal with. Not even close
   19. gef the talking mongoose Posted: June 09, 2009 at 01:17 PM (#3210901)
Huh. I guess this means that Gambling Rent isn't actually Liz Watson.

Exactly. Clearly his wife is to blame, as everything bad that happens to Barry Bonds is always totally somebody else's fault, as he's the victim of the biggest conspiracy in world history.

Does this mean that Barry Bonds is having his children taken away? Should he? Discuss.
