I used to like Bonds a lot more when he avoided the media. He is a most unlikable person.

I'm sure that CS is a decent guy, like you said, but his reputation as a drama queen seems to have followed him at every stop in his career. Perhaps it's unwarranted. Being on the West Coast and not a huge baseball fan, the only things I have to go on are statements such as this unwarranted, unsubstantiated, personal attack on Bonds' private life.

BTW, go Dodgers!

I hate to be picky, but what about Schilling's statement was unwarranted or unsubstantiated. All three types of cheating (taxes, wife and baseball) have all been attested to in separate court cases. These are not just unfounded rumors. Again, Schilling answered the follwing (paraphrased) question, "Do you think people are having to hold their noses while watching Barry Bonds break the HR record?" I, for one, am glad he didn't take give a typical "let's not offend Barry answer".

As far as being a drama queen, I think that's unwarranted and unsubstanitated. The man is outspoken and expresses himself very well. That doesn't go over well with the MSM who think that they're smarter than everyone else, so they trash him.
