This, along with the pending Mitchell Report, will cast a pall on the game this winter. I wonder if A-Rod's sudden "change of heart" and desire to re-sign with the Yankees quickly is at all related to the coming flood of news on steroids. Let's hope not.

Kind of makes me wonder what the Giants were doing last year. They could've easily passed on re-signing Bonds. They could've even released him when (as soon as the end of May) it became obvious that their season was lost. Did they really need to keep trotting him out there just so he could break the record?

I have zero respect for that formerly-great franchise.

BRJ, it wasn't about the record.
The Giants saw that when Barry was pulled from the game, there was an exodus of fans who were only there to see him play. The rest of the team isn't/wasn't worth watching.
