I guess I’m not the only one who isn’t too excited about Barry Bonds’ quest to break Hank Aaron’s homerun record. It seems more than half of baseball fans don’t really care either.
In a poll by ABC News and ESPN, only 37 percent of baseball fans said they hoped Bonds does break the record, while 52 percent hope he fails while 11 percent had no opinion. Three-quarters said they think the Giants’ slugger knowingly took performance-enhancing drugs, which he has repeatedly denied. Of those who think he took steroids, two-thirds said that made him a cheater. Yet despite all these negative opinions, six out of 10 believe he should be elected to the Hall of Fame. Bonds has 744 home runs lifetime, 11 shy of Aaron’s record.
