I was reading this article on the latest in the Matsuzaka situation (who is represented by Boras.) edit: forgot the link! www.boston.com/sports/baseball/redsox/articles/2006/12/07/getting_dicey_with_matsuzaka/And it got me thinking, Who is doing more to ruin the integrity of the game? A guy like Scott Boras, a greedy agent who seeks only to maximize his payday or a guy like Barry Bonds who alledgedly used steroids? I'm not realy singling out Bonds, but he is by far the most high profile player in this group. But he represents anyone ever found to be using performance enhancing drugs. What do you think?

I'm most likley more disgusted by Bonds, but in the long run it might be Boras.

i'm more worried about why these players that went 4yrs of college, can't negotiate their own contract, cut middle man out

In order to negotiate pro contracts an agent has to go to lawschool.

Is Boras the only one, or is he just the agent the press likes to pick on because he is more successful than the others?

He's definitely not the only one, but he's probably the worst, and probably the highest in profile because he's so successful.

Drew Rosenhouse is a more dispicable human being, but I don't know if he represents baseball players. (He's Terrell Owens' agent)
