This one is sure to spark a debate...but yes, Barry Bonds.

Plus you said athlete...Vick is one hell of an athlete. But I think you meant sports player so I'm stick with Bonds.

First off, the roids. Anyone who says he's not on them is either the biggest homer ever, or he's just a plain fuckin idiot.

Then you've got the fact that no one pitches to him. The common reponse to this is "look what he does when you do pitch to him." Yeah well, if you let him get you so intimidated, you're gonna get fucked up. His fielding/baserunning is waaaay overrated, and his avg. is high because he doesnt get a chance to do much besides HR (which not to mention he has one of the shortest RF's to hit into ever) or walk.
