DIGNAM
Remember at the end of Bottle Rocket when the police have circled the factory and bungling burglar Owen Wilson decides, despite all hope, to make a run for it?
I thought about that as I read Barry Bonds' comments on the BALCO scandal that implicated his former trainer: "They can test me every day if they choose to."
It just made me laugh.
PAGING DR. BERNSTEIN
Eight sluggers who you won't hear have "lost weight" and are in "the best shape of their career" coming to Spring Training:
Manny Ramirez
I'm just saying.
Alex Rodriguez
Carlos Delgado
Todd Helton
Alfonso Soriano
Nomar Garciaparra
Chipper Jones
Vladimir Guerrero
BALCO Fallout
So, Barry Bonds has lost weight.
(And I don't just mean the moustache. Notice how his neck is no longer thicker than his head.)
Jason Giambi has lost weight.
Larry Walker has lost weight.
Vernon Wells and Eric Hinske have lost weight.
Eric Chavez has gained weight.
Um, did you not get the memo, Eric?
