Bonds is a bad ass. He is also a world class jerk. But so what? The man was a first ballot hall of famer (Curt Schilling admitted as much) before he took the steroids. So many ball players used juice it's sickening. What can we do about it? Either we throw away all the records for the steroids era or we shut up about it. The earlier comment above saying "people need to stand-up to Bonds"..for what exactly? For using steroids? Fine, but he wasn't the only one. If we "stand-up" to Bonds we have to look at everyone else in the roids era... Big Papi has the right attitude. Bonds is a bad ass. He is also a world class jerk. But so what?

(the T obviously does not stand for Think). The bloody sock comment is getting pretty old, scrape up the million dollars to prove it or keep your own pie hole shut. From 38pitches.com: "Someone gave me a great idea to end this once and for all. No one will ever need to bring it up again. I’ll wager 1 million dollars to the charity of anyones choice, versus the same amount to ALS. If the blood on the sock is fake, I’ll donate a million dollars to that persons charity, if not they donate that amount to ALS." Ernest T. (the T obviously does not stand for Think).

Bonds is a jerk for sure. But Schilling is a blowhard. Assuming that Schilling has always been faithful to his wife, doesn't he know that many professional athletes have a problem with being faithful? How does he know that someone in the Boston Redsox Clubhouse isn't leaving a room key for a female "friend" while on the road. Come on, Curt. Legitimately asking questions about Bonds and steroids is acceptable but sounding like a blowhard is not what the Redsox need right now. Sounds like Big Papi may have used the juice too. So what? It's not like I don't think he's a great hitter. Curt, shut up and pitch. Wow. Bonds is a jerk for sure. But Schilling is a blowhard.

As far as I'm concerened Curt is the only one with the balls to stand up and say something I commend him for it. His statements are facts... You, I and Barry all know this... He missed one thing though; Barry Bonds is a lier and cares more about himself than his fans and the sport. Managers need to stop pitching to this guy!

We all must deal with it. I wonder if Bonds were a nicer guy if fewer people would hate him? I mean it's not as if he was the only guy to use the juice. But Bonds is an abrasive jerk so it's fun to hate him. Schilling comes off as a bit self-wrighteous with his remarks too. How on earth can Schilling tell the difference between "good people" and "bad people?" It's funny and makes for good reading. Bonds will break the record. We all must deal with it.

He was right there providing answers unlike the suddenly non-english speaking Sammy Sosa or the finger pointing Palmeiro. Schilling, as much of a media whore that he is, is one of the most candid athletes in sports. He will always tell you what he's thinking and you have to applaud that.

Unless Curt has receipts or test results, most information he could provide would be hearsay. Hearsay doesn't even get past the jurors on Law&Order. What exactly were you hoping for?
