Almost certain that there was collusion involved. The owners made an agreement that nobody would sign Bonds to get him out of the league. You can't convince me at least one of the 30 GM's wouldn't have given him a shot otherwise.
Of course.

You can't tell me that even the fucking Kansas City Royals wouldn't have signed him for at least a year.
