Barry Bonds Naked
Emotionally, that is. Dan Le Batard of the Miami Herald has a fascinating column in the April 11 issue of ESPN The Magazine. It observes that:

Unfortunately, the piece is not available on the Web. Non-subscribers will have to settle for this March 2005 column by Le Batard, which is almost as insightful. Bonds' Pain More than Physical [Herald.com].
