peter chaoSir Charles said it best, "...I ain't no role-model." I certainly would not use Barry Bonds as a role-model. Definitely, Cal Ripken is a role model and Barry isn't.
But when Barry was asked about Balco and the possible indictment earlier this season, Barry came up with the statement that he was ready for the Feds and they should come and get him. Of course, we are horrified by the audacity of the statements, but there's a part of me that says I hope he's not biting off more than he can chew.
If all our heroes were like Cal Ripken, life would be boring. Certainly Barry isn't boring. When Barry does crazy things, you are left wondering, "what in the world was Barry thinking about..."
