Boston Media And BALCO News
Reports today, like this one, are all over the place:
BALCO Laboratories founder Victor Conte Jr. struck a deal with federal prosecutors late Thursday that includes a four-month prison term and four months of house arrest in a case that sparked the biggest sports drug scandal in history, the Mercury News has learned.
The case against Conte - the centerpiece of the government's internationally publicized criminal investigation into steroids - looks to be resolved with a plea deal to two felonies, a short stay in a minimum-security prison, two years of probation and a fine.
Of all places for Giambi to be in today, when this story breaks, huh? The Boston media is going to be all over him today.

I think Giambi's fine, it appears he spilled the beans to the GJ.
Bonds, on the other hand, may miss some of next year as well. (at least)

I don't think he'd be in trouble at this point - just annoyed by some pesky media.
