Barry hits 756 (yawn)

I like Barry Bonds, you know the skinny kid who used to run like a deer, hit for power, hit for average and actually chase down fly balls in the outfield. I often wondered who would break Aaron's record first, Bonds or Ken Griffy Jr? Jr was traded to the Reds and has been hurt almost every year since. Barry kept playing, hitting dingers and then around 199 he started growing like a steer in a feedlot.
That may be the best description of what happened to the Barry I watched and admired as a kid.

I can't get too worked up about Barry's 756 home runs. Unless Barry hits about 150 more while he's off the 'clear' and the 'cream', Hank Aaron is still the home run champ in my book.
