Bonds hits 700!! Woah thats not age--Its HRS, I bet even the greatest steroids can't keep him alive for that long. Anyway now that he has reached 700 and will most likely beat the most HRs record, the question remains if he is THE BEST player ever to play the game? His attitude, steriod contoversies and arrogant behavior have caused trouble and it is justful to say that he is not a great role model to many. The fact is the guy plays for himself..he is being himself..and ofcourse he doesnt care what peopl think about him. As for me I think Bonds is just one World Series title away from gaining that respect he truly deserves. The man is 40 and imagine how many players would rock like that when they hit big 4-0. Impossible..aint it? He could still go for for another 4-5 years from the look of it but I think he will retire once he slightly overcomes that record, which I believe will be surpassed at the end of 2006 season. Congrats to Bond. I can't wait for postseason to start as Baseball is always a lazy game until it gets hot in the playoffs.
