Bonds was a great player who acheived loss of any and all deserved respect by cheating in an egregious manner.

A great player turned in to an object of contept where his actual ability without the pharmaceuticals is now forgotten.

Henry Aaron did this for real. Not Bonds.

I going to run out and buy his cap... before his hat size grows again.

Doesn't everybody's head grow three hat sizes after the age 35?

Barry Bonds will only ever be remembered as a cheater. The only thing that will grow as a result of presence in the record books is the number of people who hate him.

"Bonds, greeted by his teammates at the top of the dugout."

That says all you need to know.

He should never, ever be inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame.

I think most of you know that before entering politics, Jim Bunning was a Hall of Fame pitcher for the Tigers and Phillies and pitched no-hitters in both leagues.

Bunning was on the O'Reilly Factor about a year ago talking about steroids in sports. His comment was, "In my day, players started going downhill at about 33-34, today ...."

"It's a pretty unbelievable thing," Astros reliever Brad Lidge said in Houston. "No matter what kind of controversy surrounds him and no matter what side of the fence you are on as far as what he did or didn't do with performance-enhancing drugs, you've got to admit that it's a pretty impressive number."

Sad.

Imagine what number Babe Ruth would have had if he was on steroids.

If he never failed a steroid test, how does anyone really KNOW he did them exactly?
