A National Baseball Columnist for FanSided.com, I have previously served as an editor for five of our baseball sites and have written over 1000 pieces for the FanSided Network as a whole. I regard Barry Bonds as the greatest player I have ever seen, regardless of steroids, and if guys like him aren't in the Hall of Fame, they may as well not have one.I am an alumnus of Bowling Green State University where I studied English. My wife, Valerie, and I have been married since 2008 and together we have five wonderful children.I can be reached at john.parent@fansided.com.
