It doesn't mean (Selig) gezegde

 It doesn't mean (Selig) shouldn't investigate, but it's going to be a very difficult position for him. If people suggest that he could use the 'best interest of baseball' clause to suspend Bonds, I think it would take the union about three minutes before a federal judge to get that enjoined.

 A lot of people are asking why doesn't Selig just invoke the 'best interests' clause and deal with this. I try to explain to them that the 'best interest' clause is irrelevant in labor because of all the players protected (federal law). ... He has almost no discretion. He's pretty limited.

 Baseball is in a horrible position. Baseball could be celebrating this achievement while (questioning) it. ... (Selig) is in a delicate position. But it comes with the territory.

 Odds right now are against a drug related suspension, mainly because there were no rules preventing the use of performance enhancing drugs at the time Bonds is alleged to have taken them. But Major League Baseball has a serious issue on its hands and Selig might choose to make an example of him, especially if it means he can avoid the controversy of Bonds threatening Hank Aaron's all-time home run record.

 He's in a very tough situation, and that's why I think it's the worst problem for baseball since the Black Sox. Because it's so amorphous and so big and so murky. ... For the first time Selig has the awkward position of having to authorize an investigation where he may be a target. No commissioner has ever been in that position.

 You shouldn't have a federal judge micromanaging state agencies, state government. It shouldn't be done, and experience has shown it's not helpful to the people it's supposed to help.

 If Delphi and its union collective bargain group have negotiate something that is represented to the judge by Delphi and the union, who are actually the parties involved, that is acceptable to them and is in the best interest of Delphi getting out of Chapter Eleven and rehabilitating itself, the judge is going to be hard pressed to not accept that.

 One of the first things to do is talk to Bonds. Will he cooperate? If he doesn't, I think that leads to disaster for Bonds. The union would make a big mistake by being too defensive here. Congress could step in.

 The federal government is in great fiscal position and doesn't need to issue as much debt. In terms of outstanding stock of bonds, we continue to see Canada shrink.

 That doesn't mean it's not happening. It's difficult for us to investigate if people aren't coming forward.

 [On a day it was revealed that Barry Bonds might be called to testify at a House committee hearing investigating steroid use in baseball, Commissioner Bud Selig hinted he might at some point do his own investigation of past steroid use.] I'll do that in a very sensitive manner. I'm sorry. I don't agree with naming names and hurting people. You can get to the truth in a different way, ... Maybe when a definitive history is written someday, long after I'm gone, we can make some sense of this. But there are a lot of players being named who deny it emphatically. I believe in the sense of fairness.

 Our position has been that employment of immigrants is a federal issue, and it deserves a federal response. But if the federal government doesn't act, you're going to see the states try to fill the void.

 Mr. Selig looked at me and said, 'I want to know one thing. Did you bet on baseball?' ... I looked him in the eye. 'Sir, my daddy taught me two things in life -- how to play baseball and how to take responsibility for my actions. I learned the first one pretty well. The other, I've had some trouble with. Yes, sir, I did bet on baseball.'
  Pete Rose

 You can't leave such serious allegations on the public record without having them addressed. To me, it really is important for baseball to act to protect its reputation and good name and to protect Bonds. I don't know what the facts are here, what the truth is. If I were Bonds, I would want it done, and if I were the commissioner, I would want it done. Otherwise, people will lose confidence in the game, and the world will never leave Bonds alone.

 It'll be interesting to see how Bonds performs and reacts to all this controversy and attention and it will also be interesting to see how baseball voters regard him after his career is over. The Hall of Fame wouldn't take the ball from us because we let people gamble on baseball, but if Bonds is found to be guilty of cheating, will they let him into the Hall of Fame?
