Bonds Disappoints

Although Jose Canseco is probably not to be taken at his word, still judging from the lack of out right denials it appears that pretty much everyone in baseball who has been any good over the last 10 years has been using steroids.
Most of us are fairly forgiving to celebrities, especially when they show some penitence. I think Giambi admitting that he took steroids, and apologizing (he did apologize right?) was the right approach. He's more or less been forgiven.
Bonds on the other hand seems determined to take the low road. He admits to nothing, although looks as guilty as hell. He is also determined to point to everyone else's shortcomings, as if because some people write lies, or reuse the same stories over and over Bonds is licensed to use drugs. And why does Bonds bring racism into the mix? Canseco, Giambi and McGuire aren't black, and they have hounded about this as much as anyone else.
Bad behavior is disappointing, but even more disappointing in Bonds case is the failure to own up to the bad behavior.
