I don't hate Bonds. I think he gets too much of the blame for the steroid era when there is plenty of it to go around and not just for hitters. We don't know how many pitchers were juicing (cough-Roger Clemens- cough) and how that might have affected hitters. Bottom line, my reaction was much like the fans' reaction in San Diego when he tied the record. They booed him at the plate, but when he hit the HR they all cheered. It's exciting to see history made, even when some of it may have been manufactured.
Hank Aaron's video message added some legitimacy to the record imo. |

I always feel a little squeamish quoting Jose Canseco. But one thing he told Congress that day in March 2005 was absolutely true. He said it's impossible for any of us to know exactly how many more home runs anybody hit because he was taking steroids or anything else. And, of course, it's impossible to know how many more someone might have hit if the pitchers weren't taking them, too. Bottomline is that Barry put the bat on the ball. He gets two kudos from me. |
CNN said that Barry set the "world record" for home runs in a career.
I hate idiots like that. Sadaharu Oh hit more homers. It's only accurate to say "MLB record". Professional baseball sucks. |
The only thing special about that moment last night was a teaching moment if you have kids, or for ourselves for that matter.
That while yes you can break records and go down in history, but it will come at the cost of ones own personal integrity and honesty. Barry Bonds is a piece of crap. |
