Bonds Indicted

The BALCO Federal Grand Jury has indicted Barry Bonds on four counts of perjury and one count of obstruction of justice.

More to follow, I'm sure.

UPDATE [5:34pm]: ESPN.com has further coverage.

Ya Know.... WHO CARES!
Honestly, they need to just let it go. Steroids are always going to be a part of the game and its never going to be completely stopped. And by the way, do the people who trash Bonds for cheating consider that probably 50% or more of the pitchers that he has faced have used steroids as well? Sure, that is a speculative number, but I guarantee that A LOT of them have.

P.S. He is still innocent until proven guilty. But, I'm sure we will all be kept up-to-date by every media outlet that exists!

well
he being charged because he lied under oath, not for roiding. If it was no big deal he should be like yeah I did it. Then they couldn't charge him.

True
Sorry... was just so focused on the whole steroids thing that I actually forgot what they are even talking about in the news anymore! (Seriously) And you are entirely right. The current situation doesn't really matter about his use, but it is more of a "side effect" from the charges and the future outcome.

I was inspired by Eric's comment that Olerud had the best 3-year run as a Met outside Carlos Beltran to look at a few different Mets, and when I noticed that two of my all-time favorite players (Alfonzo and Strawberry) were kinda screwed by having (relatively)bad seasons in between some really good seasons, I decided to see which Mets had the best 3 seasons, period (non-consecutively). Beltran still comes out on top, but my all-time favorite player Alfonzo comes in 2nd place, and him and Straw are the only two to have three 6.0+ WAR seasons. Also interesting that Hundley comes out ahead of Gary Carter, Cleon Jones almost finishes ahead of Mike Piazza, and Joe McEwing doesn't make the list.
