I’m enjoying all the angst surrounding Barry breaking the “most holy” record. It’s funny. I especially like how the mighty commissioner’s “investigation” that was supposed to save the record book has come up pointless. Everybody loved it when the long balls started going out at a huge rate, got attendance back up, ratings back up, revenue back up. And nobody bothered to look at whether MLB’s complete lack of steroid policy might have anything to do with that, until Barry started threatening the most holy record. Now all of a sudden it’s a terrible tragedy, well you gotta sleep in the bed you made people, this is the price you pay for looking the other way 10 years ago.
The funny thing is that, personality-wise, Hammerin’ Hank is just about as big an ass-wipe as Barry.
