IMO he will not pass Henry Aaron.

Bonds has stated he has no intention of trying to pass Hank Aaron, because Aaron is black. He views it as a great thing to beat Ruth (however fraudulently) because Ruth was white.

I hadn't heard that. If those quotes are true, that would make Bonds a pretty sickening racist, woudln't it?

I did see that this morning, that he did not feel he would surpass Aaron; I did not see where he thought it was great because Ruth was white; if Willie Mays was in second Bonds would still go after it.

Is this a serious paraphrasing of his intentions? Racist comment, indeed.
