Re: Bonds ties Ruth...

If Bonds had never begun juicing, he'd surely have reached 600 HRs. He would be a Hall of Famer and one of the greats. But then, no one's happy being just thane.

At least I get some fantasy points today. Few and far between from him.

Re: Bonds ties Ruth...

I knew it was going to happen, but dang, I hate that he actually tied it...can anyone see bonds as an ambassador to baseball 10 years after retirement and getting any applause/love from the fans?? he wont be getting any from me...:thumbdown

Just to compare...I remember a few years ago when ripken broke the games record, I was happy that he had endured and surpassed the record...but I have the opposite for bonds....

I just hope he hurries up with #715 so we don't have to watch his every move on ESPN for awhile.

Well, we knew it was going to happen. Still makes me sick to my stomach though.

I totally agree. I hope we don't see him come close to Hank's record.

I don't think his body can hold up long enough to make it that far.

The guy can barely walk as it is...

Anyone see the game on TV or highlights of it? Was wondering what kind of reaction he got from the fans. Wasn't it played across the bay in Oakland?

Here's to ya Bonds,

I hope he hits #715 tomorrow then hangs it up.

Then he, McGwire and Sota can beam up to that parallel * universe never to be seen or heard from again.
