In case you somehow missed it...

Barry Bonds' 756th home run has landed. And it was nabbed by a Mets fan who's now quite richer than the rest of us. Here's the full video, complete with Hank Aaron's salute:

Barry Bonds is armed and dangerous (to baseball, that is)

We don't care that Barry Bonds (allegedly) used performance-enhancing drugs to set the single-season home run record. Many players were doing it, baseball wasn't testing for it, and baseball is a competition. In competition, you do whatever you can within the rules to win. Bonds did that. Is he an asshole? Definitely. Are the numbers he's put up over the past seven years faulty when compared to what past legends like Ruth, Mays and Mantle did during their careers? Probably. But honestly, when Bonds hits his next - and 756th overall - home run, we'll be extremely relieved. We can't stand talking and hearing about this record ad nauseam any longer.

We will watch this delightful video, though.

Man push cart

Barry Bonds hates you, the media, and he's also not so fond of the laundry cart. He (essentially) flipped one off and tipped the other over yesterday following an 0-for-5 performance in (another) Giants loss. That record isn't going to just break itself, Barry.

The Barry Bonds fan club loses a key member

Did anyone else realize Barry Bonds' son, the one who trolls around home plate celebrating his father's home runs, was named Nikolai? How could we have missed this? We know we haven't been at this blogging thing very long, but this seems like a pretty giant lapse on our part. No matter, because Bonds' kid's recent misfortune is proof enough for us that he'd never make it on the Soviet Olympic team anyway.

Nikolai Bonds tore two ligaments in his left ankle last week when he dunked during a pickup basketball game and came down on someone's foot -- and now the 17-year-old is hobbling around the clubhouse in a walking boot for the initial stage of what is expected to be a two-month recovery.

We've come down on someone else's foot several times while playing hoops, and we've sprained many an ankle, but never torn anything. Bonds, notorious (alleged) steroid user, not only has a son named Nikolai, but he's tearing ligaments before this 18th birthday. You know how they say some stories write themselves? W're pretty sure this is one of those.

Oh, and in case we forgot to mention it, this means Nikolai may not be in uniform as the Giants bat boy when his dad breaks Hank Aaron's record. Though at the rate Bonds is going, we're pretty sure Nikolai could have shattered both femurs and he'd still make it back in time.
