The Long, Painful "March" To 755
We're not gonna make any predictions this time — and we promise, this is the last time we're gonna end a day with a Bonds post — but Barry Bonds might or might not give this another try tonight....
Is This The Night Bonds Finally Ends This?
Call us crazy, but we have a feeling Barry Bonds is going to tie and/or break this record tonight. We kind of want him to; we really can't take anymore. The quicker he does it, the quicker we can all move on with our lives. Plus, having him do it in front of the fanbase that hates him more than any...
Barry In Tampa ... What Might Have Been

Bonds And His Dingers: The Madness Continues ...
OK, here we go ... Dontrelle Willis is all that stands between Barry Bonds and his sleepover with history (9 p.m. EST, ESPN). Does Hank's record fall tonight? Will Dontrelle toss a couple fat ones?

One Swing From History

Maybe You Don't Want Bonds' Home Run Ball
Imagine, hypothetically, that you were the one to catch Barry Bonds' 756th home run ball. It's not gonna be worth as much as it would have been a few years ago — you see, Barry Bonds has done a shitload of steroids, and many don't like that — but it still might, say, pay for a semester of college. (...
Jeff Pearlman, On His Subject Barry Bonds
Barry Bonds remains just two homers away from Hank Aaron's record, and in the wake of this historic and confounding achievement, we felt we should talk to a guy who knows the life of Bonds better than anyone else in the media: Jeff Pearlman, Bonds' biographer in Love Me, Hate Me. We've interviewed...
Selig Won't Watch, But We'll Have To
Well, if that whole Barry Bonds Won't Play On ESPN thing turns out to be based in reality, we're all in luck; Bonds is never going to break Hank Aaron's record. Because everyone of his at-bats is gonna be on The Worldwide Leader until, well, until he breaks it, or dies. So, you know, enjoy....

After his two home runs yesterday, everybody's favorite beacon of light Barry Bonds is just two home runs away from tying Hank Aaron. Perhaps you've heard about this.

Everywhere You Look, Pants Parties
We had a grand time at the Philadelphia Pants Party this weekend; it was oddly less drunken than usual — might have been the crushing heat, or perhaps just the Mamula sandwiches — but as grand as we could have hoped. We are consistently amazed by how nice everyone is at all these; we've been to four...

We take you now to the Giants' clubhouse at Dodger Stadium, where Barry Bonds has a few words about his second straight 0-for-5 performance in a 5-3 loss to the Dodgers: "It's an embarrassment for me to be wearing this (expletive deleted) uniform 'cause of the way I'm playing. There, that's it. Now ...
