Bonds can go shuck a dick. Preferably his own. If he didn't want the media to give him such a hard time, perhaps he should have played within the rules of the game, perhaps he shouldn't have been so antagonistic with people who are doing their jobs, and perhaps he should have only played the racism card where it was applicable. I gave him the benefit of the doubt for a very long time and now my patience is worn thin. If the media can give him a reason to not play, then he should by all means not play. He can go play pickup games with his friends if he still has a love of the game. Clearly he's indifferent to whether his team wins or loses, so it seems he's sticking around either for the money or the records. He'll soon not have the latter. Too bad, so sad.
