If you want to be an apologist for the biggest jerk to step on the field since Ted Williams, you've got your work cut out for you. The guy can't do a 5-second postgame soundbite without coming across as what he is - a monstrous egomaniac.

Bonds moans that McGwire got favorable treatment during the '98 home run race, but he can't remember that Sosa was also a participant.

Living now near SF, I can state that Giants fans are the worst baseball fans I've ever seen - they actually want to change the rules of baseball for intentional walks to favor him. A typical headline here: "Bonds goes 1-3 with a homer; Giants Don't Win". Aaron and Ruth deserve better company.
