Bye Barry, Good Riddance

The Justice Department has reworked its perjury charges against Barry Bonds. Now 14 counts of lying plus 1 of obstruction of justice against the Home Run king, er sham. So much for any collusion by MLB not signing him this season. Bonds will have much more on his mind. His arrogance was his undoing. The Feds-and the public-don’t mind mistakes. Just tell the truth. Bonds is too much of a jerk to do admit he used steroids when interviewed by the government in 2003, and we won’t hear from him again-unless its in court.

My only regret: These charges should have come LAST YEAR, so that Bonds couldn’t have broken Hank Aaron’s true home run record.
