Mea culpa

Well, If Barry Bonds doesn't play this year, blame me.
Barry does.
"And you, you, you, you and you"...

It's hard to believe, but I think I liked him better when he would just shout "get out of my face" and plop down in his clubhouse...{br}{br}View the Entire Article{br}

Nice read Shawn. I feel Barry is just at the point of frustration w/ his knee. I should know, since I've had ACL reconstruction on mine, I know how frustrating it can get and how you can be down on yourself and only think about yourself. Barry is without a doubt always thinking of himself, since he plays for my favorite baseball team, I'm of course partial. I hope he comes through the injury ok and I also think when he has calmed down and the injury itself starts to heal, we'll see him before the all-star break. As much as people pile on Barry, I can't help but pull for him. Maybe that is wrong of me, but it's the way I feel.

Good lord! Did you get confused, and think that OS stood for "Operation Smart people"?

That one went even over my head.

But, thanks to you and Wikipedia, I learned something new today.

You and a lot of people.
Like I said, it's in our nature to want to forgive and explain away what we don't like.

It's not we ever see that one boards here...
