Moments ago Barry Bonds belted a full count fastball into the 4th row of the right centerfield stands to become baseball's all-time leading homerun hitter. Homerun number 756 was greated by amazing positive fan reaction, and amazingly, a video salute to Barry by the one and only Henry Aaron.
Hank showed his class, which had been questioned recently, toward a man who truly deserves any praise that he recieves. Barry Bonds is one of the three greatest hitters of all-time, and the greatest player since Willie Mays himself.
I've said often that Barry's unfair treatment by many fans and the media is the reason I started this blog over a year and a half ago. It's only fitting that I say goodbye to the Fox community on the night that my guy becomes THE GUY on the MLB homerun list. Hats off to you Barry! You deserved nothing but accolades on this night. Let me be the first on this blog site to congratulate you!
Proud NGS II finalist. My run to the sweet 16 was short but. . . (from the department of redundancy department) sweet.
I love all sports. The Seattle Seahawks are my main passion. I've loved them since I can remember. My teams of choice in other sports are the New York Yankees and Rangers, and the Arkansas Razorbacks. As far as the NBA, I'm just a drifter. However, I do love this game!
