Barry Bonds

[SI]

Looks like Bonds won't be the only player damaged by the book controversy:

The book says BALCO's performance-enhancing drugs were used by several athletes, including track stars Marion Jones and Tim Montgomery, NFL players such as Bill Romanowski, and sluggers including Bonds, Sheffield and Giambi.

This article really delves more into the dirt revealed in the book:

Anybody watch "Bonds on Bonds" last night on ESPN?  It was so horrible.  IMHO he's desperately trying to salvage what's left of his reputation..get people to feel sorry for him.  Pretty pathetic if you ask me.

I can't stand this guy, but I have to respect him.  Personally, I blame MLB for not taking a stance on steroids/performance enhancers sooner.  Ball players have been using amphetamines for decades I guess.

If you think about it, the whole issue is a double-edged sword for them.  On the one hand, they desperately want to portray a clean, inspiring image, to be the good role models for the children.  On the other hand, they know that without action, revenues will be down: fewer home runs = less excitement = fewer fans.  That's probably why they haven't taken a hard-line stance, even with congressional pressure on them, IMO.
