Steroids or Sour Grapes?
An excellent article on the steroid allegations swirling around Barry Bonds.
"There is nothing, absolutely nothing on this green earth that you can eat drink, sniff, inject or rub on yourself that can make you hit 700 home runs in the Show. That product exists only in our collective imagination, and if he did drink the spiked Kool-Aid, so to speak, this would include Bonds."
Also, see for yourself: Barry Bonds through the years.. tell me, do you suddenly see the man ballooning up?
Bonds works like Hell, and was trained by his father (a long time major league player, and his godfather, who just happens to be Willie Mays, to hit from the time he could lift a bat. Along with 658 homeruns, he's also stolen 501 bases.. something you do not do if you are packing on the muscle artificially.
Baseball is not only about strength, but about speed and skill. Bonds has all three.

Spring Training Game!
San Francisco Giants: 9
Chicago Cubs: 3

Jeffrey Hammonds had a grand slam in the 7th, and Bonds left after the 2nd, due to really sloppy conditions.

Every girl crazy 'bout her sharp-dressed man...
Among other things, my mom and I went over to have my fitting for my sister's wedding this Saturday.
Black suit, tuxedo shirt, red tie. Damn, but I look good.
