sports edition blog . . .

so yesterday on free fox, the dodgers/mets game got interrupted with the barry bonds at-bats . . . kinda irritating, except for the fact that bonds did nothing. except hit weakly to the pitcher . . . got a walk . . . got a strikeout--then cutting into the at-bats isn't too bad. i'd rather miss a few commercials to see bonds strikeout any day!

so he's two away from the record. what would happen if bonds couldn't hit two or three homeurns back in san fran this week against the braves or marlins? suppose he had to make the series to los angeles at the end of july and try to break the homerun record there? do you think anyone in los angeles is really going to care?

or even better--he ends up like fred mcgriff who was 5 from 500 homeruns . . . suppose bonds gets injured. career ending . . .

off to other things.

so to hadji's contemplations--is golf really a sport? let's extend that--is fishing a sport? or race car driving? or bowling.

i guess that got me wondering--someone is suggesting that golf players be tested for steroids . . . makes you kinda wonder. would taking steroids really help you put a ball in a hole, catch more fish, or drive faster?

and then the great debate. the dodgers come to town this week. and it's your anniversary . . . what to do. what to do . . . 8-b
