Good and Bad News


A couple days ago, a sad day happened in sports, Barry Bonds broke the home record. I couldn't believe the hooplah and press this received, who actually cares that someone that cheated could beat a long standing record. Every record book needs to have a big * beside Bonds name so that future generations know that although Bonds has hit the most home runs, he cheated doing it. Hank Aaron looks like he will be the true home run king for a number of years to come.
On the other hand, I read on espn.com that Reggie Miller is contemplating a comeback at the age of 42. Unfortunately, the comeback won't be with the Pacers because they don't have a chance at a title this year, instead it will be with the recently loaded Celtics. Although, I've never been a Celtics fan, I might have to cheer for them if Reggie does come back because he the greatest Pacer and one of the greatest ball players of all time.

Garnett is one of my all time favs in the NBA... so i'm an immediate *an* of the Celts. (It will be tough rooting for them, or the Raptors from the East)
But yeah, IF they get Reggie out of retirement... THIS will be my team from the east, if they meet ANYONE other than the suns in the finals, i'm a BIG Celts booster all of a sudden.
Heh.
