One more post about the Bonds thing and then I'll leave it alone until he gets in trouble

The AP has a small report on Hank Aaron saying he might speak to Bonds someday. It also has this dynamite quote from the home run king (yeah I said it):

"It really got to the point where a lot of people started wanting to give you advice about what you should do, and they didn't know what the hell the situation was," Aaron was quoted as saying. "I mean, these were people that you had been knowing for a long time, but they couldn't figure out why I wasn't getting involved in this thing. Then they would come forward and say things like, 'Well, you need to do this. You need to do that.' They wanted to give you all of this advice, and they didn't know what was all involved in it, really.

"That's the thing that really bothers you. Friends that you've had a long time are all of a sudden coming forth and telling you things like, 'Well, I don't understand why you aren't making comments, or why aren't you doing blah, blah, blah?' Well, you know what? You're not supposed to understand any of it, because you're not in it."

Hank Aaron is in a zone right now where he can do wrong. Kudos to Hank for calling out certain idiots who have no idea what's about to happen to Bonds and his legacy. And make sure you remember everything that happened over the past week with regard to Bonds, because as Aaron's letting on in this quote, the shit's gonna hit the fan, and perhaps sooner than you think.
