Just got home from Bees in time to see it happen live. I can't say I like the guy, but the record is such a big part of baseball that I'm glad I was able to see it happen.

It's people like Bonds that make me want to use drugs. Personally, I think he needs to die in a tractor tire fire.

So I wonder if Rover caught the ball. He is one of the morning show guys. And was holding a contest. If he caught that ball I think it was some lucky listener that registered wins one million dollars. I am happy for the guy. Now he can die into the lime light and fade away.

I don't wish the guy death, just wish he didn't have all the shit above his head. All in all, it's more about the record than the man for baseball and there are a few guys playing now that could snatch that record up before they are done (like A-Rod).

Oh I know the record is back up in the air. But I also am not saying he should die. He came back and thats all he talked about. Did not care for his team I think. He wanted that record. I am happy for the guy really I am.

How much did steroids really help him though? Hand to eye coordination is the big key, and a good swing. Getting bigger usually means your coordination gets worse, so I don't think it could have helped a shit load. He was a 30 hr hitter back when he was little (with 30 sb) and came into the league, so it isn't anything new to him. I am not a big fan, but he did earn it.

Look at Mark Macguire now. A few years ago he was just massive, and led all of baseball in home runs. Then it came out that he used roids. He quit using in the off season, dropped 30 pounds and barely hit any home runs. Now you don't hear of him any more. Hell I am not even sure he even still plays.

As far as Barry is concerned he just ruined that title. He should have retired from baseball when he tied the record. Yeah it is a milestone. But do you honestly believe that he earned it?

IMO, nope. Bonds has no class, not a team player, and a roid user (whether he "knew" it or not).
