When Barry passes Hank
Baseball commissioner Bud Selig needs to be there when Barry Bonds makes home run history -- and rise above the race issues that color Bonds in the public eye.
By Sandy Tolan [2007-07-21]

  • Bob in Pacifica can you cite your sources?

    That's quite a claim, that more "white" people hate Bonds than "black" people. Where did you come up with that statistic? Did it come from out your ass? So give us the research, if you have any.

    And is it "per capita" as in percentages? Such as "31.094 percent of "black people" as determined by the U.S. Census of 2000" as opposed to "68.906 percent of "White people" hate Bonds.

    Why did you leave out our nation's fastest growing majority minority, Hispanic people? Some of them are Caucasian, some mestizo, some "brown" and some "black." There's a lot of people in that demo who follow baseball. How do they feel about Bonds?
