Judging by the emails I get, we've sort of carved out a niche highlighting moronic fan behavior in other cities. The most obvious example of that is the incident in Los Angeles, where Dodgers fans beat up a Giants fan, Bryan Stow, earlier this season.

Stow family attorney Thomas Girardi said that former slugger Barry Bonds has donated to pay for their college education. He said the family has talked about turning other donations back to the fans if this suit is successful, but said the gift of a college of education is something they treasure and will keep.

Bryan is a single father. He has a son and a daughter who are both in grade school.

Bonds visited Stow on April 22, while he was still in a Southern California hospital.

Sources close to Stow told NBC that Bonds also spent an hour in Stow's room and left a signed baseball bat for Stow's children.  At the time, there was no mention of a donation to a college fund.

 

Actually quite nice of Mr. Bonds. Stow is slowly getting better, but still a long way away from being healthy.
