Barry Bonds has never spoken more pleasing words than he did yesterday. The slugger is out until at least mid-season and possibly the whole year or perhaps even FOREVER (fingers crossed). I'm so sick of hearing about Barry Bonds. He is not a baseball god. Believe it or not, there are some other home run hitters out there. If I were a manager, I'd pitch to him almost every time. Might I lose the game? Yep, but I wouldn't inflate his ego even more by walking him.

His excuse is that he's physically and emotionally drained. Ok, I can understand that. He's been through some surgery recently on his knee. He's only been on the disabled list twice during his entire career. He's not used to being out of action. However, he decides to attack the media and blame them partially for him being out of action. Just admit it Barry. You are tired of your use of steroids being questioned. Everybody expects that you have used (or still do use) steroids. Get the monkey off your back and come clean. Yes, your records and reputation will be forever tarnished, but I guarantee you will feel better emotionally. Don't blame the media for your absence in the lineup. Don't kill the messenger for your own faults. You've always been an asshole to the media. If you'd stop thinking you are the best player ever in the history of baseball, perhaps you wouldn't be srutinized so much.
