Mark Purdy = lazy dingbat

Mark Purdy of the San Jose Mercury News gets on the Barry Bonds Hate Train to write one of the lamest columns I've read recently. He says no one cares about Bonds but doesn't bother to quote anyone or explore how the Giants offense scores even less than it did last year or the 20% decline in home attendance for the Orange and Black. Frankly, the entire piece reads like dozens of hate-drenched columns from other dingbats like Bruce Jenkins and Gwen Knapp; this one looks like it was cranked out in about 5 minutes.

A tip of the Giants Win hat to Aneel at Trapped in LA for pointing it out. Here's some of his expert insight --

You know what I, me, the Giants fan don’t care about? How Barry treated you. But my gut tells me that you care about it, and continue to do whatever you can to exact your revenge.
Stop. Enough already. Why continue to ignore how much the fans and team miss Barry? You don’t miss him. Fine. But don’t try to tell me that ‘no follower of the Giants’ misses him. We do.
