Jason LLet's be very very clear about this:
1) Bonds is a cheater. However naturally skilled he actually is, no one will ever know.
2) Blaming Selig is just plain dumb (unless we later find out that he was overtly and deliberately encouraging steroid use).
3) There is absolutely no reason to believe that Hank Aaron actually, truly honors this record being broken in this fashion by this man.
4) Celebrating and honoring someone who didn't play by the rules is a hollow and worthless activity.
5) If HOF balloting in the coming years is conducted with only an eye towards their stats, what a truly embarrassing cast of characters we will have traipsing through Cooperstown:
Barry Bonds
Mark McGwire
Sammy Sosa
Rafael Palmeiro
Roger Clemens
How much you wanna bet none of these guys set up at autograph tables in the coming years?
disgusting.
