Do you mean the uncorroborated evidence that can't be viewed as factual?

Or do you mean the "photos, numbers, and little things"?

But doesn't this mean that Bonds didn't cheat?

Critical thinking has to do with drawing conclusions FROM facts, not in what can be called facts. What he has "gaps" in is his standards, not his critical thinking. And we might be better off saying it is YOU who has a gap in his standards.

MT2R,

It has been reported by Will Carroll that Bonds arm size has not changed since he started wearing his elbow protector. This information came from the inventor of said device. What do you think of this fact?

Its funny because if it was ME, I'd be able to say that this is a stupid point and who cares about something like arm size and all that. But since MT2R is basing his entire argument on stupid stuff like this, "little things," then this has to be addressed.

That was a quote from the Pulitzer panel's determination of the book as a result of their extensive research into the sources cited.

I'll let them know some guy on the interwebs thinks they have gaps in their ability to think critically, since they are basing it on their own extensive research into the book, instead of taking the two authors words at face value, based on the hearsay gleaned from less than credible sources who in many cases have recanted or denied the allegations made in the book.
