I think he should be banned from baseball immediately.

And ANY pitcher who gives him anything close to being hittable should immediately be sent to class-A ball.

These records should never be allowed to fall to a juiced-up moron.

I feel similarly. On the other hand, if the pitcher were to shout out "Fast ball! Right across the plate!" and then throw a fast ball right across the plate, it might take away from the home run that followed. And, when interviewed, perhaps the pitcher could heap scorn on Bonds achievement.

The homerun will be hit (unfortunately). I'd just like to see it occur within a context that diminishes it.

But what about the juiced up pitchers who threw to him over the last 15 years? Should they all have their records tossed as well? Roids have been around a long time in the game and the people who took them would create a list as long as immigration threads here on FR.

IF I were a pitcher I would intentionally walk him as I would never want my name associated with him in any way.

With a head that big, you would think that just about any A-Ball pitcher should be able to put it in his ear-hole.

No doubt.
