Last night Barry Bonds hit #713, to move within one of Ruth.

In honor of Barry I'm celebrating today as Balco de Mayo.

I just can't believe any GM is letting his pitchers pitch to this guy... If I was GM even if it cost a game, I'd have standing orders to walk this walking pharmaceutical factory.

Well, MLB ought to ban any substance except what was legal in the 20's when Ruth was playing. SO that would leave what, aspirin and alcohol and coffee.

No Motrin, Aleve, or other NSAIDS - non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. And no cortisone shots (another steroid derivative). Anyone who used "Red Juice" or "Greenies" - asterisks after their records. Well, there goes half the players of the last 50 years.

Aww, look ... if and when Bonds hits the homer that puts him ahead of the Babe, all that means is he will officially hold the title that I think him whenever he happens to come to mind:

Number 2
