Here’s the story:
Ecko is Awesome – that’s right, it’s up to us to decide the fate of#756.
Bonds called him an idiot. Ouch. Now he has no team – bigger ouch!
I told you I was in the stands at the Mariners/Red Sox listening to him booed by thousands when he hit 755. (WTF is up with my Red Sox, btw?)
Here’s the site,
if you want to vote. I went for “Brand It” because that’s what I feel the situation deserves. It won’t be forgotten. But it could serve as a lesson.
No, snippy, it’s different than the Pats. Just because it is.

Y’all are a bunch of cheaters up there. Dang.
I also vote brand it. . . only because I think that would be more humiliating than sending it to the moon.
I still very clearly remember the day Sosa’s bat shattered . . . and how hard I tried to believe him when he insisted his practice bats must have gotten mixed up with his game bats. *sigh* Baseball broke my heart that day.
I agree that it’s different. With baseball, the cheating is more about individual records than winning the World Series. With the Pats, I think it was a more broad, sweeping cheating with the goal being for the TEAM to succeed. . . which somehow irritates me more, but hurts my heart less.
I voted to brand it. Did you hear the other day when Bonds heard about this? He started whining about Mark Ecko like a little baby.
So when are people going to start treating these baseball players like they’ve been treating Pro Cyclists?
Snippy- I agree the diff. between baseball and football, but still think every team in football records plays.
Jamie- He pitched a fit. I don’t like that guy. And I agree it’s time for consequences.
rofl great excuses though.
