For those of you who don't know, Barry Bonds of the San Francisco Giants, has just hit his 755th career homerun, tying Hank Aaron for the #1 spot on the all time home run list (It's only the 2nd inning, so he may hit 756 by the tomorrow).
What do fans of baseball think of this feat? What do people think in general of it?

i think he should have stopped one short to be respectful. thats only if he really did you steroids. if he never did then i think he has all the right to that title.
Correct me if I'm wrong, because I know nothing about baseball, but good hits is about technique isn't it? So I don't get how steroids would have much of a role. Although I guess you'd need strength to hit it for a homerun.
of course he has been playing for years upon years of his entire life so his form is excelent. professional level. but when combined with steroids, its lethal. you gotta have muscles to hit it that far too, not just technique.
Go Barry Bonds!
(I was joking about the Hank Aaron thing)
Hank Aaron is clean as a whistle. That's why he didn't bother to attend nor watch the game.
It's like giving credit to the "winningest" lawyer which uses the mob to intimidate the opposition into giving up. (made up word, I know). Or if someone became world footbag champion by beating the hell out of all the other footbaggers and also getting credit for it. Cheaters have no place in the world in my opinion
I'm no longer a fan of baseball, so I guess this is a general public opion.
He's a juicer. Not only is his hitting 756 not an accomplishment but it puts a shameful face on the entire sport by celebrating a man who cheated to make the achievement.
anybody see the look on bud selig's face after he hit the home run... priceless... its kinda funny when the commisioner of your sport doesnt even want you to break a record as great as this record lol
