I have a positive opinion of Mr. Albert...
However, I do not have a positive opinion about Barry Bonds...I think that he was a great player...However, I did not find him likeable...
From what I gather about Bary Bonds, I don't think anyone that played with him liked him very much.
Consider this: the easiest way for Bonds to get back into MLB's (and the writers') good graces would have been to come forward as an all-out, LeBron-style BLM activist. Easy ticket to the Hall of Fame and daily appearances on ESPN. Instead, he hasn't said one word about politics, at least that I have heard.
Bonds can be a cranky and difficult man - but he has always gone his own way.
