Word is that the record breaking homerun ball of Barry Bonds is being marked/branded w/a fucking asterisk and then being headed to Cooperstown...

Am I the only one that find that this is utterly despicable..?

I find it pretty humorous actually. Ecko left it for the fans to vote and they wanted it branded and sent to Cooperstown. I think the main problem is with Cooperstown accepting it like that. I don't see anything wrong with it being branded with an asterisk but the HOF should have more class than to accept it that way.

It's a fucking joke, who hasn't been on the juice during this era?

Some of the biggest names in this era have been clean. I definitely don't think that everyone juices. Here are some players who are definitely clean but who are huge for the game

Ken Griffey Jr
A-Rod
Derek Jeter
Randy Johnson
Johan Santana
Jose Reyes
Michael Young
K-Rod
David Wright
Pudge
Albert Pujols
Barry Zito
Jason Schmidt
CC Sabathia
Jake Peavy


Those are only some of the quality players out there who don't juice. I know that there are tons more
