Before proceeding, read this article (http://mlb.mlb.com/NASApp/mlb/news/article.jsp?ymd=20070111&content_id=1777148&vkey=news_mlb&fext=.jsp&c_id=mlb)
With everything else that's happened in the last few years, now we have this report that Barry not only tested positive for amphetamines, but attempted to blame it on a team mate. This is wrong on at least 3 different levels.
1. Given how much scrutiny Bonds is under, he's stupid to take anything even questionable.
2. Even assuming it was something given by a team mate, he should be more careful about what he puts in his body.
3. Blaming a teammate does nothing but hurt the entire team - even if it's true.
Forget about records and asterisks. I think it's time for Barry to be out of the game so fans, players, coaches, teams, writers, and everyone else can move on.
I'll still be cheering when Barry does something to helps the Giants. But I'll also be thinking about who else they might have gotten for 16 million.
