Use my notoriety to remind everyone that Bonds is a cheater and doesn't deserve any of his records.
Then I'd think of something to write on it like a giant asterisk and "Steriodally derived home runs", and sell it to the highest bidder.

Oh there'd be a reserve. There's fat money to be made on that ball, but it has to be done BEFORE Barry retires, because the minute he retires #last would sky rocket in value and #756 would plummet. So you gotta find a sucker with deep pockets, of course Todd McFarlane lives just up the road in Phoenix so it shouldn't be too tough.

Put it on ebay, take the proceeds and donate them to an organization to rehabilitate drug users.

I don't like the way baseball is covered in the media anyway. It's all about who the favorites are reguardless of how teams or players are doing. Obviously Bonds is news but there are better players across the nation.

Well, we already know he wouldn't sign it and, if you handed to him to sign, would probably walk away with it and keep it for himself. So, I'd just have to put it up for sale.

Actually, what I would like to do and what I would do are quite different.
Like to do: Trash it and Bonds for trashing baseball.
What I would do: Sell it and get trashed, buy a lifetime subscription to NFL Sunday Ticket and MLB Extra Innings on DirecTV, donate 10% to the church, buy a LOT of Frank Family Vineyards red Zinfandel.

"Actually, what I would like to do and what I would do are quite different." Okay, ya caught me, I would indeed sell it and if I got enough retire.
What I'd like to do is a different matter altogether. What way would be most effective to show my disdain for this cheater? I'll have to think on that.

Sell it and live the good life. For those who want to throw it back, give it to me and I'll throw it back for you...yeah, that's it.

So let's see... the ball will be worth some big bucks... so what do I do?
Do I destroy it, defile it, or throw it back and miss out on some big bucks in order to make a "statement"?
Or do I make some cash by selling or auctioning the ball?
Hmmmm... I don't think I'd throw money away like that, so here's what I would do... I'd announce that I was going to destroy the ball... on Pay-Per-View...
