Anyone else NOT give a crap about Barry Bonds?
His home run record should have a disclaimer next to it.

15. My 86 year old mother and the other ladies at the nursing home
were all bitchy this morning about how much of the news was about Barry Bonds. I do not think they have a clue about the issues and controversies, but even they are fed up with it.

2. I loved baseball when I was 15..

At sixteen I touched my first female breast (that didn't share my last name). Now baseball is so insanely boring that I can't be bothered with it.

edit :: forgot a word

3. It is nice, but it does have an air of indifference
It goes beyond Barry Bonds even. Who of today's players can we really trust?

4. Barry Who? jk!
I have no interest in sports. And I really hate when sports stories become news stories.

11. Who?
I liked playing ball as a child. Now I know how much my parents did for me by coming out to watch every game. It's a fun game to play, it is boring to watch. I don't understand the fascination with professional baseball. It's a child's game yet people pay these guys millions to play it??????

16. I'm not getting it. Hank Aaron he is not.
I don't know much about baseball, but Barry has major integrity issues. Let's just move on. I'm also in Paris fatigue, like pretty much everyone else except for a small population of 10 year old girls.

17. Same here
I don't follow sports much at all typically. But I am fond of people exceeding records and expectations.

I don't know why BB is allowed to continue the run up to Hank Aaron's record when he is doing it with medical "help." I think he needs to lay off the 'roids and then stilll try to beat HA.
