Bob RousseauBonds' little 'impromptu press conference' when he said "Look what you guys are doing to my family!" and indicated his son. Yeah, it was the press's fault a woman came forward around that time saying she was Bonds' squeeze on the side who he bought a house for with the proceeds from signing balls (y'know- so the wife wouldn't notice a chunk of his bank account gone). I thought what it might be like to have to be that kid at the press conference- "OK, now I have to look really sad because Dad wants everyone to feel bad". Bonds also said something about "You guys all want me to jump off a cliff, well, now I want to jump off a cliff. You win." Pathetic.
As far as Steinbrenner vs. Cominsky- I'm no George apologist, but at least he doesn't screw his ballplayers out of money like Cominsky did.
