While I was writing the last entry, Barry Bonds smashed a 3-1 pitch to the upper deck in Philadelphia.

In idiot news, anti-Bonds fans had a sign "Ruth did it on Beer and Hot Dogs."

Newsflash, kids. Bab Ruth played in the Majors from 1915 to 1935. Prohibition, the banning of alcohol mandated by the XVIIIth Amendment, was in force from 1919 to 1933. Which means that during Ruth's moist productive years beer was an illegal substance.

So Ruth's records should be stricken from the books and he should be pulled from the Hall of Fame. At least if the Phillies Phans are right...

This proves my stance on the entire subject: people are going to feel however they want to about him. No information or discussion will change it. Haters will hate him, his fans will support him. Period the end.
