Indicted!

Barry Bonds is the all-time home run leader in major league baseball. He's also majorly screwed!

The former San Francisco Giant was indicted on Thursday following a four year investigation.

He was charged with perjury and obstruction of justice for telling a federal grand jury he did not knowingly use performance-enhancing drugs.

If convicted, Bonds could be sentenced to a maximum of 30 years in prison.

      I'm sure he'll get 48hrs in jail right? They're overcrowded right. OopS, I forgot. He is black.

      Read the article, this is not because he used steriods it is because he lied to a jury. He could have used anything or done anything bt the whole point of this is because he lied, and deep down they want to make him pay for using. Who caes he still is and was the best, Matt Williams(former Giant) was should found to have bought HGH, and McGwire used it too, go after them, oh yeah they are all around good guys always nice to the media.

      I'm not saying he didn't do steriods or that when he falsely testified he was doing the right thing. But I find it curious that Bonds has gotten SO MUCH criticism over steroid use when Mark McGwire who OBVIOUSLY was juicing too hasn't gotten nearly one fraction of the negative press. I think there is more here than just steroid issues. I think it's a sad reflection of the racial preferences that the media still holds. Shame on them.

      barry brought this on himself, he truely (really) is rotten human being, rotten to fans, rotten to teammates, rotten to the whole baseball system & has been from day one. he was spoiled rotten by his father & doesn't do anything to help anyone unless it serves his own selfish purpose. the reason they're going after him is because he's a LIAR, mcgwire & the other big names didn't lie, that & the fact the mcgwire still holds the rookie record (49) gives mcgwire a (shaky) leg to stand to stand on. mcgwires rookie record proves that with or without roids he could have done what he did. this isn't racist, i'm african american, i've met barry bonds (years ago) & he's an asshole. you can't spend 20 years shitting on everybody & then all of a sudden play nice when it suit YOU. athletes should carry themselves well (or at least attempt it) at all times. don

      Re: KiKi

      KiKi you summed it up perfectly. MLB used Barry Bonds, just like MTV used Britney Spears. And because they are both a-holes, not that many people care.
