How’s this for a confluence of events: Barry Bonds ties Hank Aaron atop the career home run list; Alex Rodriguez hits his 500th home run, by 330 days the youngest to do so in Major League Baseball’s long history; and Michael Irvin is inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame along with five other all-time greats.

    I dunno, James… but when you can point to such events happening without benefit of steriods, you might have something.

    If any of the above had any import, homes would be empty and the streets would erupt, but alas…..they do not.

    I’m with Bit on this one. Bonds tying/breaking the record has no meaning in lea of the juice.
