Some might argue that, after a certain age, the size and shape of your upper head should be a constant thing.
It should be one static concept. It's the size and shape of your upper head. Period. There should be no need for the adjective, current.
But with Barry Bonds it is necessary to specify a timeframe when referring to the size and shape of his upper head.
Are we talking about his current upper head? Or his past upper head? And if his past, which specific point in time?
One should not enter into a discussion of Barry Bonds' upper head casually.
