Whatever the motives, it is a classy move by Bonds. Lets' face it, he could use some good PR. I still think he is getting way more **** than he should be, in comparison to other guys from his "era".

 

Without a doubt. He was surly to sports reporters and they're the ones that frame the public perception. Steve Carlton simply didn't speak to reporters, so they left him off the All-Century Team.

Don't care who/what/when/where in this case, a very nice thing to do. He was a surly player, not decent to fans, teammates or the media really, but he's getting well above the lion's share of crap from steroids.

It is a shame that Bonds did'nt show this side during his playing days.

Bonds gets more grief from reporters, because he was more confrontational, and defiant when it came to dealing with them.

It ain't right, but he that is the way it works, particularly in baseball it seems, so you could say, beyond just juicing, he brang a lot of the scrutiny that he is on, upon himself.
