I concur.

"If baseball commissioner Bud Selig honors Barry Bond's 756th home run as a record, can we the add the commissioner and Major League Baseball to your list of people and things that aren't what they used be?"

Neither has been what they used to be for quite some time. But you are right. The time approaches when both can be added to the list of things that aren't what they weren't what they used to be.

WTP? Cheating has been a part of baseball for as long as it's been around. When the guy is caught, he gets suspended (or whatever) then gets to come back & play. We don't see asterixes on their stats, so why all this commotion?

As far as I know, Barry Bonds has not been CAUGHT doing anything. Implications from federal investigations hang over his head, but until MLB accepts those implications as fact and does something about it, Bonds has been playing within the rules, and his record should be accepted as such. And the Commish should follow him around till he breaks it.

Gotta love this world of ours. The dark man who hasn't failed a drug test is being dogged by controversy over his "rapid growth". When the dark Canadian won the Olympics on steroids, they took that gold away faster than I wolf down those Skillet Cookies. Meanwhile, the white boy who won the Tour de France last year after failing a drug test still has his title one year later. I'm not sayin', I'm just sayin'.
