BONDS DOES IT (FINALLY)

Barry Bonds just hit Home Run number 756!!!!!!!

Official particulars of the HR 756:

Barry Bonds (OF), #25
San Francisco Giants
August 7, 2007--21:52 PDT
Location: San Francisco, AT&T Park
Opposing Pitcher: Mike Bacsik
Opposing Team: Washington Nationals
Inning: Bottom 5th
Distance of Home Run: 435 feet

What did we learn from this home run chase?

1) Most of everyone outside of San Francisco thinks the record now is tainted.
2) Henry Aaron probably is the classiest elder statesman in all of sports (if you missed his taped congratulations speech, you missed a heartwarmer)
3) Bud Selig's silence shows he thinks Bonds is guilty of juicing.
4) Bonds put people in the stands despite the fact the Giants are dead last in the NL West.

Anything else I missed? Let me know.
