No Loss for Words

Even though I have never been a rabid fan of professional baseball, I try to stay up on what’s happening with the home team and over time get to know most of the movers and shakers on the other teams.  How could anyone not know who Barry Bonds is?

Here’s what I know about Bonds.  He’s been a helluva player his whole career.  He was a superb outfielder and he hit more home runs than any other player in history.  He has never been cooperative with media folks trying to cover him and his teams for their readers and viewers.  He’s a ball player, not a media darling.  Like many other high profile players, his name came up in the course of the national discussion about steroids in sports.
