Mike Bacsik of the Nats pitched #756 to Barry Bonds. His father pitched to Hank Aaron after he hit 755 home runs. Had Bacsik pere pitched a homer to Aaron, we would not have to honor Barry Bonds today.
"An intellectual hatred is the worst, So let her think her opinions are accursed. Have I not seen the loveliest woman born, Out of the mouth of Plenty's horn, Because of her opinionated mind, Barter that horn and every good, By quiet natures understood, For an old bellows full of angry wind?" W.B. Yeats

Let's honor Bonds the same way we honored Nixon: with 30 seconds of embarrassed throat-clearing.
I heard Bonds predicted that A-rod would be the next to break the record. I thought that was particularly solid and humble of Bonds.
