755 is still the record in my books
having grown up a baseball fan my whole life, and playing it for 15 or 16 years, 755 was always a magic number to me. it, for the geeks who read this, is the number of home runs hit by hank aaron in his illustrious and historic career in major league baseball.
recently, yesterday, barry bonds hit his 756th career homerun. amidst a ton of steroid controversy. anyway, i dont really have time to write this, but i wanted to make mention of this, because when he is completely found out, and the truth comes to the light, 755 will again be the record in the REAL record books for homeruns hit.
[edit]
a recent poll on cnn.com's front page:
What was your reaction Bond's breaking Aaron's Record:
Cheer 17% 21822
Jeer 34% 43265
Yawn 49% 63131
Total Votes: 128218
(not a scientifically driven poll, but certainly shows
the sentiment i have i shared by most)
