I’m not a fan of Barry Bonds.
I was and am a fan of Hank Aaron.
While still unproven in a court of law that Barry Lamar Bonds has taken steroids...
His physical size has grown to proportions not found in nature.
He could have worked out to get that big, but what about his head size?
I have yet to have a personal trainer show me how to increase my head size.
It’s big enough anyway as friends and family will be more than willing to tell you.
What Barry Bonds needs to know is why people dislike him so.
It’s not about the record.
It’s not about the money he makes.
It’s not about racism.
It’s about lying.
Barry Bonds testified to a grand jury that he used a clear substance and a cream given to him by a trainer who was indicted in a steroid-distribution ring. He said he didn't know they were steroids.
Really Mr. Bonds?
You see, most people when given a substance ask what it is.
Will it improve my performance and relieve nagging pain. What are the side effects?
It’s almost like an expression your parents give you when you do something wrong. Why did you do take that? Because the trainer told me to. Well, if he jumped off a bridge would you follow him?
No you wouldn’t.
As we embrace and watch Hank Aaron’s record go from tops to second best,
let us remember that while nothing has been proven in a courtroom, in the courtroom of common sense, Barry Bonds needs help.
