He just wants the judicial system to operate ala Ryan Braun.

Craig, why don’t you write an article and enlighten us on this from your barrister standpoint. I think it would be quite interesting.

Hasn’t he already served his time for this as well? Besides wiping his slate clean, what would be the benefit of throwing more money at the case purely from a Barry B perspective?

Having a lawyer tell you that you are not clear in what you say is high on the unintentional comedy scale, Craig.

That day is today. Consider it a gift from the Lord who commands you to stop reading articles that you don’t care about.

Perhaps the jury found that Bonds’ big ol’ head obstructed their view of the statue of the blindfolded lady holding the scales.

That would seem to make more sense than reading their verdict in the traditional way.

Now the gov’t will be in the difficult spot whether to cross-appeal or risk losing the whole case. Either way, the prosecutors will look like asses if they spend more money and lose or spend more money and win.

It makes me feel that much smarter when I argue about Andy Pettite and Barry Bonds with my friends.

One of the things I truly appreciate about this site is the insight into baseball’s legal proceedings from someone who actually has legal training. So thanks for that, Craig.
