Bonds’ Deal Seems Like a Giant Stretch

Is it just me or does Barry Bonds’ charitable offer of $10,000 for every home run he hits seem ungenuine and self-serving?

I think he is very much like Roger Maris: No one wants him to break the home run record. So he concocts a clever scheme to get everyone to root for him.

So Barry, what happens if you hit zero homers? How much will you donate then? Nothing? Then we cheered for naught? Sorry Barry, no amount of money will get me to cheer for a jerk like you.
