Your Vote Matters!

I am sure that very few who read this will actually care about this but I thought that it was funny.

Mark Echo, founder of the Echo Clothing line, has purchased the ball that Barry Bonds hit for his 756th HR to break Hammerin' Hanks record for $750,000. He has decided that he will let the public decide what should be done to the ball. This is your chance to make an impact on Baseball history. Here are your choices:

A. Bestow It: To Cooperstown to be preserved for all to see and appreciate.
B. Brand It: Take a branding iron of an asterisk and burn it into the ball before sending it to Cooperstown.
C: Banish It: Put it on a rocket and send it into Space.

Go and vote, then post what your vote was and why.

I voted to bestow it. Simply because we all want to complain about Barry Bonds and steroids....but he is still a better baseball player than I'll ever be!

I voted for the asterick. His accomplishment will always be "asterickized" by media and others telling the story anyway, so go ahead and and just stick it on there. Stick 756 of them on there. They look pretty like stars. *****

I voted to Banish It.

All records obtained after Mark McGwire broke the season home run record are tainted....especially when half the league has been on steroids or HGH at some time during their career.

Roger Maris still holds the season home run record.

Hammerin' Hank is still King.

...after that, still cool! It may betray my Sooner-ness a bit, but OU's show is essentially the same too... just a bunch of wavy lines all over the field moving around. At least what A&M does requires tremendous precision and flawless execution.
