It's official. Fathead is the new homerun recordholder. The chase is finally over. I'm fairly certain that nobody outside of San Francisco genuinely cares about this achievement except that it means we won't have to hear about it any more.

I'll keep this editorial brutally short: Barry Bonds is a cheater, a liar, and he's an asshole to boot. I chose this picture because this is what I think of when I hear his name. Not him standing at the plate belting BALCO bombs into the cove; no, I picture him and his fat melon in front of a microphone speaking out in defiance of the truth.

It may not go down in the record books, but that asterisk will always be there in my mind.
