Although we are well accustomed to surly press conferences, misunderstood statements and misrepresented facts, through steroid rumours and bum knees, the future Home Run King had thus far, to our knowledge anyway, managed to carry out his career without resorting to dressing up as a female.
No more.
And not once, but twice.
For a second day Wednesday, Bonds dressed up like "American Idol" judge Paula Abdul, donning make-up, an orange wig and a midriff-bearing cut-off t-shirt as part of a rookie-hazing charity event.
"My legs look better than Paula's" Barry was alleged to have crooned.
It's questionable. Paula used to be a fit bird:
But Paula never dressed up like a baseball player, not even for charity.
Of course, we chirp, this is all just publicity for the upcoming Barry Bonds Reality Show where he won't reveal that he took steroids and he won't admit his record for homers, if he achieves it, will be tainted, justifiably or not, by scandal and rumour. Guess if you can't beat em, join em.
One thing that cannot be disputed is that no matter how hideous Barry may look kitted up like a bird, he's certainly got Dennis Rodman beat:

I think that Team USA's rotation just took a massive blow when it announced that Al Leiter was named as a last-minute replacement.
Granted, some of the competition isn't so stiff or perhaps merely composed of stiffs, but even against the likes of Canada the suggestion is that the USA can't be taking this thing to seriously. CC Sabathia and Billy Wagner begging out were grim reminders of the embers this flame is burning down to.

61-Foot Shot That Sent DePauw Men to NCAA Basketball Tourney.
DePauw?
Who else is making it in, DeFoot? DeHands?
Watch out, the Dare Cats are coming...
