Shar (Great Neck, NY): Any thoughts on Hank Aaron refusing to travel when Bonds finally breaks the record? Two thoughts on this: (a) any chance every team in the majors will agree to walk Bonds at every at bat so he doesn't break the record? (b) I heard a radio announcer this morning say that A-Rod is on pace to hit a hundred something home runs and would bet that Aaron would travel to see that. I thought it was funny.
Bill Simmons: I love it. Hank Aaron is the greatest. I'd do the exact same thing if I were him. Although it would be better if he went to the game, watched the homer in person, then stormed off when it happened.
