Bonds voted to All Star team

With a huge surge in the last few days, Barry Bonds overcame almost a 200,000 vote gap to make the NL starting squad...this is only right imo! The game is in SF and this will be the year he breaks the record...glad to see it!

Im not going to watch the game for sure now that Bonds is a starter. He is a disgrace to baseball and the human life form in general. Maybe a AL pitcher will hit him with a pitch and he will be out for the rest of the year.

I find your remarks disgraceful...wishing injury to someone is indefensible! Bonds has yet to be charged or even formally accused of wrongdoing...he may end up being the steroid king, or he may not but he will end up the all time home run king, he deserves to be in this game and to deny him would be a disgrace to baseball. People "KNOW" he's guilty...thank god, in this country we depend on facts rather than what folks "KNOW". I think your attitude, that because you don't like someone, they deserve misfortune is at the base of many of society's problems!

Somer: that is Nascars standard emission coming out! Bonds might be cleared but I think that after all is said and done ARod will be the HR King!

Timm,
Might well be...but I just don't get all the hate, it's a sport for goodness sake! Bonds, like every other person, is innocent until proven guilty and his record speaks for itself...he just hit 751 today, having an excellent season!

I know that Bonds is ego-centric and generally rude, but it's his bat that wiil get him in to HOF!
