Posted By: <b>Bob S</b><p>Hey folks,<br /><br />I hardly know where to start...<br /><br />First of all, this OT post has been allowed to run on and on.<br /><br />Srange departure from the purpose of this forum.<br /><br />Also, the subtle scent of racism has been sensed in some of the posts.<br /><br />Come on, folks, I've got several Ruth '33 Goudey's, and I realize the possible impact on the value of these gems if <br />Bonds surpaces (sp?) the Babes' HR #.<br /><br />One could argue that without alcohol, the Babe would have hit less HR's.<br /><br />I've had an exacerbation of my Lymes' disease, and, for the time being, I must stop posting.<br /><br />But please consider the points I've brought up.<br /><br />Thanks, folks.<br /><br />Bob S<br /><br /><br />9sp?)

Posted By: <b>steve f</b><p> Of course in that massive thread it could have been missed... I didn't sense any racial overtones and feel this is one of the least macho and sensitive forums of all the Sports boards I've visited. In fact, I posted a <u>delicate</u> item at one time and was rapidly called to task by several (and hopefully pardoned). Personally, I believe McGwire, Sosa, Bonds and any other junkie, regardless of skin type, if not banned then should be stopped at the Hall doorstep by Selig. And although I am a huge fan of JJax, Landis made the right call boldly.<br /><br /> Bob, I hope you have a speedy recovery. That is such an insidious disease and affects several of my friends in many ways. I sure hope there is a vaccine soon. God bless.
