    Having been raised by traditional Christian parents, in my home we were required to use clean language. Vulgar words were not to be used, and if they must be referenced one was to replace them with a more appropriate version. Often, this was accomplished by using something along the lines of “the B-word,” or an alternative phrase, such as “The (now former) Left Fielder for the San Francisco Giants” or “The Player who Stinks.” All three of these terms were pseudonyms to be used in place of the most abhorrent curse word in my household: Barry Bonds. To use those to words was worse than any other expletive in the English language. As I grew older, I was astonished to learn that other people did not treat that name with the same infamy that I was taught to use. Some people, I learned, even considered Bonds to be the greatest player of all time. I was astounded. How could this man, whom I had been conditioned to avoid even saying the name of, be treated with so much reverence?…
