Default Re: What do other pros think about Bonds?

"Baseball" hates Black people? Oh really? Baseball is made of black people, so this isn't possible. People love talking about Jackie Robinson, Bob Gibson, Lou Brock, Henry Aaron, etc. "Baseball" hates nobody.

One white, and two hispanics (sosa, palmeiro) have already been swept under the carpet. A black is about to join them. And the Earth keeps turning...

In all fairness, many current black players view it slightly differently. They see one white and two hispanics not swept under the carpet, but protected from intense media scrutiny, while the black one gets the fifth-degree.
