Not that Bonds was predisposed to telling his story. During a rare moment when Rhodes was not present, an ESPN reporter went up to Bonds, who responded by shouting, "Blake, they're violating me! I'm being violated! That's harassment!"
Bonds did make a statement of sorts. As he walked toward the showers after Tuesday's workout, past a table at which Willie Mays was sitting, Bonds said presumably about himself, "The most wanted man in America." He then raised his fist, a la Tommie Smith and John Carlos at the 1968 Olympics, and said, "Black power."
