Per CNN.com

SAN FRANCISCO, California (AP) -- Barry Bonds was indicted Thursday on perjury and obstruction of justice charges, the culmination of a four-year federal investigation into whether he lied under oath to a grand jury looking into steroid use by elite athletes.

The indictment came three months after the 43-year-old Bonds passed Hank Aaron to become baseball's career home run leader. Bonds parted ways with the San Francisco Giants after the season.

While Bonds was chasing Aaron, a grand jury was working behind closed doors to put the finishing touches the long-rumored indictment.

Well, it's not a steroids indictment, but perjury and obstruction.

I really don't like him.

And as far as the power rankings go...I'll get them up either after the Georgetown game tonight or tomorrow. Been a few really bad, busy days at work in a row.

I am one of the few people (I guess) who doesn't care one way or the other about Bonds. Did he use PEDs? More than likely. How many sports figures have? I would say a significant percentage. I can see how people wouldn't like him, the jerk that he is, but give me the sullen jerk over the T.O./Neon-Deion style of self-promotional jerk.

He used them. There's no doubt in the matter. Game of Shadows resolved ALL of that.

It's always the cover-up.
