The Bonds Baseball

NEW YORK – The ball Barry Bonds hit for his record-breaking 756th home run will be branded with an asterisk and sent to the Baseball Hall of Fame, its owner said Wednesday.

Fashion designer Marc Ecko, who bought the ball in an online auction, set up a Web site for fans to vote on the ball's fate, and the decision to brand it won out over the other options, sending it to the museum unblemished or launching it into space.

"We're going to be working with the folks at the Hall of Fame," Ecko said on NBC's "Today" show.

Marc Ecko, the guy that bought the baseball for $752,467 must really want to make a point. That's a ton a money just to give it to Cooperstown. And Bonds, well he just throws around more insult calling the guy an idiot.

Note to Bonds: See mirror.

I think this is excellent.

Make sure to put a big enough asterisk so Cooperstown can't turn it over and hide it.

Just knowing it upset Bonds makes my day. The cheater didn't expect that. Looks like the whole thing just came out of left field.

That's right GL, they opted not to pick him back up after the season. The last line of the story that I posted a link to gives that info ...

"The Giants announced Friday they will part with Bonds after this season, the seven-time NL MVP's 15th in San Francisco and 22nd in the majors."
