Brent,

When I read that you posted Barry Bonds I immediately thought of my vacation in 2007.

The wife and I planned a trip to San Francisco. As is our custom, we always choose cities where
we could include catching a baseball game. It was the summer Barry Bonds was chasing Hank
Aaron for the HR record. I have to admit that while I despised Bonds, I did get caught up in the
HR frenzy. I asked the wife if we wanted to go to the Monday or Tuesday Giants game.
We chose the Monday night game. I distinctly recall every pitch that was thrown to Bonds that
night flashbulbs from every corner of the stadium lit up.

Well, as luck would have it Bonds went 0 for something Monday night. The next night we
watched him break the HR record from our hotel room. If I didn't like him before hand, well,
it gave me all the more reason to dislike him even more!

By the way, I would have like to have seen Randy Johnson pitch at least once.
