sdelmonteGuess I finally found things to say today, with three posts so far.
The following article is the most cogent and well-thought-out article I've read yet by a sportswriter about Barry Bonds, steroids, and sports. It is not full of the moralistic nonsense that clouds the debate over steroids, and seems to be written by someone who's been to the real world.
I love sports, and love reading good sportwriting. But sportswriters make lousy writers of hard news. Most tend to see things in shades of black and white. Thankfully, Patrick Hruby of espn.com's Page 2 - like most of the iconoclasts of that website - sees shades of gray.
Oh, and his feelings about steroids are exactly my own.
