after Reading This Thread About Bonds, Here Is My Take On The Subject.
regarding Hank Aaron's Record.
the Season Is Only 1/4 Over, With Over 100 Games To Play.
bonds Is Capable To Hit At Least 20 More Home Runs In 2006.
bonds Can End The 2006 Season With 735 Hr,in Record Range.
factors = Health And Team Distractions
if The Giants Keep Bonds Fresh,rest After Night/day Game.
media Is Be Less A Factor Now Since Bonds Past Ruth.
media Will Not Return In Full Force Until Bonds Nears Record Of Aaron.
if Bonds Continues To Have Health Problems, May Shut It Down By The Allstar Break And Return In 2007.
bonds As A Dh In The American League?.bonds Is Only Safe In The Bay Area. Oakland A's Cannot Afford Him.
the Only Team That Can Afford Bonds In The A.l. Is The Yankees. The Only Lure Is The Short Right Field Porch.bonds Would Retire, Before He Moved Away From His Family To The East Coast, And Especially Played In New York.
it Looks Like A 50-50 Chance That Bonds Will Overtake Aaron's Homerun Record At This Time
if The Giants Dont Mind The Distractions In 2007, And Bonds Stays Healthy Enough, Will He Be Able To Persue The Record.
in Conclusion, Bonds Will Stick Around In 2007 If He Gets Within 25 Homers Of Aaron By The End Of This Season. If He Ends His Season In 2006 Distant From The Record, Bonds Will Simply Retire.
my Opinion, Regardless Of What Bonds Does For The Rest Of The 2006 Season, He Should Retire At The End Of The Year, And Save Face. This Way The Steroid Issue Becomes More Of A Mute Point, Since Bonds Will No Longer Be A Threat To Aaron's Record. The Media Will Eventually Cool Down. The Only Moral Question That I Ask, Is If Bonds Cheated And Lied About Steroids, And Is Allowed One Day To Enter The Hall Of Fame, Where Does That Leave Pete Rose?. Here Lies A Double Standard, And Another Issue That The Hypocratic Commissioner Of Baseball Will Have To Deal With.

You guys are crazy if you think Bonds isnt going to break Aaron's record. The guy is probably going to hit 30 HRs this year, especially now that he is relaxed and not pressing like he was the last few weeks going after Ruth.
The truth of the matter is that the guy is an cocky, arrogant ego maniac. He has already started to talk about coming back for the 2007 season. I am sure the Giants will want him back but even if they dont i guarantee that at least 10 teams will want him to come play for them. I would not rule out him going anywhere or even taking a pay cut to go to Oakland and try and break the record. Steroids or no steroids the guy keeps himself in great shape and he has at least two years left in him and that is all he needs.

Over his career, Bonds achieved every individual distinction he put his mind to. What, 7 MVPs?
But his body his weak. No more roids = very difficult to come back from knee surgeries + an aging body 2 years deteriorated from ex-roid use.
Mentally, it's nearly out of his hands now, whether he does it or not. He moves like a broken down tractor. You see him round the bases? Ruth looked more nimble...
