He turned a blind eye when it was obvious that McGwire and Sosa were popping steroids because the HR race between the two was good for baseball's popularity.

Now he's going to ignore Bonds's run because of him taking steroids. Just a bit hypocritical IMO.

Is this really that big of an event?

I'm a decent baseball fan, but just really cannot get into this at all. I usually turn off things when Bonds is on the tube. It seems like more of a sideshow than anything.

It's only the most significant record in sports; so yea, people shouldn't make a big deal.

While the Bonds/'roids aspect of it has turned it into a bit of a side show and some fans feel a bit jaded about the whole thing, it's still the most revered record in sports.

Now, now, let's not get crazy.
