BArry Bonds may be in big trouble. The New York Daily News is reporting that Bonds may be indicted by a federal grand jury within a week or so. He will supposedly be charged with two counts. The first count is for tax evasion. The second count is for lying to the grand jury. If convicted, he will probably go to jail.

He is definitely guilty of the tax evasion. The story is he hasn't reported hundreds of thousands in money made from signing baseball cards.

Fat fine, probation, that's about it.

DOUBT HE GOES TO PRISON. I won't be surprised if he gets a tumor the size of a grapefruit though.

I don't think there will be any way for him to avoid jail time if convicted. Those are very serious offenses. Pete Rose went to jail for tax evasion.

Pete Rose was a great ball player but a scumbag as a human being, for what he put his poor friend and family through. Geez, with all his money the least he could have done is sport a decent haircut. That bowl look was awful.

Well ... at least ...
