Bonds hits 756, way too go CHEATER!

So Barry Bonds hit 756 last night and technically now holds the all time homerun record in baseball. Well, anyone that can't figure out based on pictures today and pictures from when he started know that he juiced. What's sad is even without the juice Barry was a hell of a player and he probably even without roids would have come close to breaking the record. If you took his ten year average prior to 2000 of 36.1, Barry from 2000-2004 when he juiced his way to 258 homeruns and his avg. homeruns per season went to 51.6, if he had stayed legit, he would still be within 75 homeruns of the record and I suspect people would love this guy instead of hate him. Its disappointing that Barry robbed the fans of a real homerun chase towards Hank. Even if he never made it to the record it would have been an amazing chase. Looking forward, I would love to see Griffey get the record, he has always played fair and played the game hard, here's hoping he gets there!
