Uncle Tommy was in Las Vegas over the weekend to give a speech during a private fundraising event at the Venetian.  Bill Plaschke from the Los Angeles Times was also there.  He (Mr. Lasorda, that is) was very charming and entertaining.  He dropped this bombshell:  Barry Bonds may have used steroids.  Who knew?!?!

Tommy was available after dinner to meet with and shake the hands of attendees.  As a result of reports regarding Mr. Lasorda's personal hygiene habits, most declined.

Update [2005-11-22 10:22:30 by teemcee]: In related news, Tommy got run from the press box at the UNLV / CSU football game on Saturday. Some people are soooo sensitive.
