Barry Bonds subscribes to the Cedric Benson School of Self-Motivation. Benson said, referring to Thomas Jones, that he’s “10 times the man and 10 times the player“. Bonds feels the same way when it comes to A-Rod.

“Is he as good as me? Hell, no,” Bonds told The Post when asked if Rodriguez was the best player of this generation. “He’s better than me now because he’s younger than me. But, hell no.”

Bonds was later asked if Rodriguez ranks right behind him. “He ain’t even second,” he said. Bonds said that honor goes to his close friend, Ken Griffey Jr., “but he got hurt.”

We’re surprised that Bonds didn’t put the Brown Hornet and Bookman from Good Times above A-Rod as well. They always came through in the clutch.
