408 4564 Jaydawg reyes4mvp^2654 Re: Jason Whitlock of the Kansas City Star has an interesting take on how blacks and whites view Barry Bonds and his home runs differently----' We (black people) see a brilliant player who is being singled out and persecuted for a “crime” that everyone else did and is doing. White people see an arrogant cheater who must be punished and serve as an example of the penalty for cheating the game.' [Reply to #4564] 5/21/07, 7:09pm Im indian and in my honest opinion Barry Bonds with out a doubt it the greatest player of all time. I think that the media is always over exaggerating this racial thing. If there is any controvery it should be over the use of steroids there is no link between use of steroids and race. To me even if he used steroids or not i find it difficuly for a person to hit 700+ HR's. To accomplish that you need great timing, good hand eye coordination and of course, great skill. I also find it disappointing that Major league baseball and Bud Selig will not celebrate the breaking of Hank Aarons record. To me this is not a good thing for baseball.
