T EI don't think the problem is that Bonds cheats, or that he is black. He is just a creep. A white Barry Bonds would be no more palatable than a black Barry Bonds.
Hank Aaron dealt with a lot more racial crap than Bonds could dream of. Bonds is just a nasty arrogant ugly person who is about to break an iconic record, the result of which will be that the record will no longer be iconic.
We do get to choose our icons.
