Friday Fire: Why Has Barry Bonds Been Erased From the Game a Year After Setting the Home Run Record?

I was there. 713 landed 20 feet from me. I expressed to my son he better remember this moment

Writing a piece that will be up next week on Barry. I find it crazy that dude is a mere afterthought a year after blasting 756. Do you remember how you felt today last year?

If Barry Bonds is that foul, then why hasn’t anyone else touched his numbers–even if they took PED’s?

If I was Barry I’d consider suing MLB and Bud Selig. He and he alone put a charge (fan hatred and anticipation) in the game that it greedily feeds off as I type.

For the young folk out there who don’t think George Steinbrenner wouldn’t have signed Barry when he was still around, you are sorrowfully mistaken. BB is Reggie Jax.

Keep working out Barry and don’t stop.
