I'm still a Braves Fan
Don't worry, I am not becoming a Giants fan, but I am a baseball fan. And every baseball fan knows the ranking order of home run champs-- Hank Aaron (a former Braves player), Babe Ruth, Willie Mayes, and .... Barrry Bonds?!I don't know what to think about this. Steroids or not, the man still stood in front of all of us and physically hit all those home runs. I just don't know if I feel comfortable bumping Babe and potentially Hank for a guy who we're not even sure was taking steroids. Babe was an absolutely unhealthy slob who did wonders with a bat. That's magical and what baseball should be about. This guy is a robot baseball player with a bad personality and it's hard to cheer for a guy like him. People were more thrilled with the Cub's Juan Pierre for climbing the wall and catching what would have been the magic tying #714 home run ball last night. That's sad to me. What's also sad is that the Braves are already trailing the Mets and the Phillies for wins. But I'm a fan, and I still have faith. At least I know we're gonna win the division somehow. We can at least be counted on for that.
