Going out on a limb here...

Post by valerie »

But I'm just going to do it anyway.



I don't want Barry Bonds to get any more home runs. I don't want him

to tie Babe Ruth, much less pull past him. OR Hank.



I heard he wouldn't sign home run #713 for the fan who caught it, and

said something about the guy making money off it, etc. but shoot, Barry,

YOU are the freakin' millionaire here. With all that's going on couldn't you

at least try to swing a little public sentiment your way and sign a ball

for a guy?



And yes, I think this has a lot to do with the "steroid scandal". (I even

hate typing those words, dammit!). I think putting an asterisk or

whatever in the history books is stupid, too.



Okay, rant over. I know I'm not going to get my way, but the whole thing

leaves me incredibly sad.



Anybody else feel like weighing in on this?

Yeah....I'll weigh in: You're 100%, totally completely dead-nuts accurate with everything you've said. Selfish bastard. Share the wealth, you tight-fisted freak. (Barry, not Val...:yh_rotfl )

He said that? That's not very nice.:rolleyes: I wonder how much the ball will sell for even without an autograph.

so what's the lesson he's going to send to the millions of young boys if he does get the record? Cheaters WIN?!!

He should be banned from baseball right now. If I was a fan I'd boycott all his games. As it is, I refuse to watch a single baseball game this year. (I never do anyway!)

Good point. IM so over baseball. I dont watch any professional sports anymore to be honest. I stick to Good Ole Georgia Football because they're good, and my alma mater, and besides, Mark Richt is H-O-T!

That would be perfect. I love it. I hope they are thinking what you (and I) are thinking, too, Scrat.

With the exception of painting a syringe on the end of the Babe Ruth banner....no, I can't think of a single one!! :yh_devil :sneaky:

They've mostly been throwing to him but now he's apparently added a

bad back to his host of ailments and won't play again 'till Friday.
