Saw Barry hit #756 last night on TV.  I knew it was gone before Kuiper had even said "He hits it high...".

What I can't understand is the killjoys that keep bringing up the steroid issue.  Until they can prove to me that pitchers were the only ones not taking the juice, then it was an even playing field so nothing is tainted. 

Why don't reporters do some real investigating and not target just one person.  If baseball as a whole was doing something illegal, then baseball is to be held responsible and again, the record is not tainted.  Besides, it is a GAME.  It will always be a GAME.  No matter how much reporters try to tell us that sports is bigger than life itself and that they are the keepers of the holy gate of sports itself, they should be treated as nothing more than what they are...Reporters.  Nothing more, nothing less.
