Here's something far more disturbing. And there's video, too.

I'm just trying to imagine what John McGraw would have thought about this. Wow.
Barry Bonds will be one of the biggest stories in 2006, no matter what. He is quite likely to pass Babe Ruth and he will have a chance to approach Henry Aaron's all time mark of 755 home runs. There remains a lot of controversy over the sluggers of this era, especially given the apparent prevalence of steroids and other performance enhancing substances in the modern era. While I remain plenty skeptical about the moralism that underlies many of these controversies, the records of Ruth and Aaron are about as lofty as anything in sports. How does Bonds stack up? It will be interesting to find out.
