I don't like Bonds, but...
I just got home a read that SF is not going to bring Barry Bonds back next season. Now, like I said, I don't like Bonds and I don't think that SF should have put up with him for this long, but the timing of this seems a little suspect. They keep him around just long enough for him to break the record in a Giants uniform and then turn their back on him almost immediately. Don't get me wrong, they did a lot for the guy - sticking with him through tough times, essentially building a ballpark around him, etc. - it just seems that they couyld have at least waited until next year or at least the winter meetings to make this announcement. Something about it just seems shitty to me.
