STL FANATIC Posted August 8, 2007 Share Posted August 8, 2007 There's no need to get into any real personal argument with you. I've no major problems with you, Jigga.But please don't mistake my true, legitimate refusal to pile on people and to let others as a high horse.Like the song goes, "don't start none, won't be none." You're a good guy and all, Justin, but it's funny how YOU made it personal with me and then you come back saying you don't want to get in any personal arguments with me. I'll except whatever olive branch you're extending, but don't for a second think you can just get personal with me and expect me not to strike back. I guess I'm just stupid like that.Back on topic, Uh...yeah, Bonds took 'roids.No, I don't expect that. I DID get personal. And you replied. All fine.I was just trying to say I didn't want to get into a big long personal dispute that extends throughout this thread (and possibly into other threads).Our short exchange was fine, just no reason to tag it on much longer.Seems we each rub each other the wrong way at times. No biggy. I don't figure there's any greater ill-will than that though, and I'd say when we're not getting on each others nerves--and actually even when we are--at least we're both still contributing to this board, which is more than can be said for some.And as I'm typing this, Barry hits it. Rats. Oh well.Classy message by Hank Aaron though. JUSTIN STRIEBEL | PORTFOLIO | RESUME | CONTACT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

See Red Posted August 8, 2007 Share Posted August 8, 2007 Wish he would've done it at a game Bud Selig was attending so I could see the look on that :censored:s face as he watches Bonds round the bases.Congratulations, Barry!Barry Bonds -- All-Time Home Run Leader.

habsfan1 Posted August 8, 2007 Share Posted August 8, 2007 The guy who caught the ball had to be immediately escorted out by a dozen of police officers so fans don't beat the crap out of him after or during the ballgame.and congratulations Bonds, what a great moment for him!

Jigga Posted August 8, 2007 Share Posted August 8, 2007 Actually, it proved that Hank Aaron can read a script off a teleprompter.It was the equivalent of a form letter.Therefore, nothing classy about it. It was a bit surprising, that's for sure. True class would have been Hank showing his hateful ass up to the ballpark and speaking kind words from the heart.EDIT: I'm glad Selig wasn't there. It's so fitting that Selig was meeting with the Mitchell commission steroid witch hunt instead of showing his smug face in the crowd during a moment that he and his leadership (and especially lack thereof)helped create. The night belongs to Barry. Not Hank. Not Bud. But Barry. Greatest player of his generation. On January 16, 2013 at 3:49 PM, NJTank said: Btw this is old hat for Notre Dame.

TFoA Posted August 8, 2007 Share Posted August 8, 2007 Congratulations to Barry. Like it or not, the man is now the Home Run King. The only asterisk will be in the minds, never in the record books. Is it sad that this is what some people will think? Absolutely. But is this still a historic moment? Yeah it is.Now it's time for A-Rod to shatter it in about 6 years.
