Baseball can say Barry Bonds deserves the record, but they can’t make me care.

Frankly, I was surprised to find out that Barry Bonds held the single-season home run record. In all this flurry over 756, I saw that in a story. I realized that I had discounted that record in my mind, because I knew it tainted. I simply did not care that Barry Bonds had broken that record.

I will not care that he has broken this one, either. I fully expect that five years from now I will have no idea who is the current record holder for most home runs in a career. I will be able to picture Hank Aaron’s record blast in my mind for the rest of my life, but I have not even bothered to turn on the TV to see Barry Bond’s 756th home run.

I just don’t care, anymore.
