I think people may be confounding the Bonds that was in SF after 2000

as the player he was for his entire career

Griffey in SEA was being heralded as THE PLAYER to make a threat on Hank's HR record

and I think he had a season where he set the first half HR mark?

but yeah, both guys were great

I'll give Griffey the edge over Bonds

off of the strength of 96'- 99' alone

and as kids we all imitated Griffey's HR saving catches
