Steve Sailer is someone with whom I disagree on several things, but he's smart and serious and honest and so he's always worth reading. (I've found it's much more enjoyable reading political writing I disagree with when it's executed well... it's a shame so much political writing is so lame these days).

Here's an interesting post from Steve speculating on what Barry Bonds will do if/when he comes back to baseball:

Secretly, Bonds will go off steroids, but will use Human Growth Hormone, which is officially banned, but for which baseball doesn't test. (It requires a blood test rather than a urine test, and blood tests aren't in the players' union's contract.)

Publicly, Bonds will announce that his knee is now too delicate to support all that upper body mass he innocently built up through his dedicated pumping of iron, so he's switching to a lighter, more flexibility-oriented exercise regimen. He'll talk a lot about how how his weakened knee can't let him drive his lower body through the ball anymore, so he's relying more on his wrists, etc. etc. so don't expect tape measure homeruns from him anymore.
