what to do about Barry
Barry is here for three days as he tries to make his ‘roid record here in LA against the Dodgers. Of course I will be at the games… but what to do?
BoycottBarry.com is selling “Bondsfolds” to use to cover your eyes when he’s at bat. Get to the game early and you can buy one, along with a styrofoam asterisk.
The LA Daily News seems to be supporting his cause and promoting the protest as well. I hope all you Dodger fans out there can hold your boos in for a few days.
I like Plaschke’s idea of remaining completely silent as the highlights of his home run will be played over and over, and all that will be heard is nothingness.
I’ll see you all there.

I saw this week in baseball’s salute to Cal Ripken and Tony Gwynn - both class acts. That’s what a hall of famer looks like! I sooo hope barry doesn’t get in after retirement 5.

I love Plaschke’s idea too. And all Dodger fans should arrive to the game wearing a shirt with just an asterisk on it, to symbolize that the record is questionable.

I have to say (although I know everyone already knows it) that Vin Scully is a Class Act. They were talking about him during the ESPN broadcast last night (I’m amazed that he doesn’t have an analyst or anyone assisting him during his broadcasts!) and they had asked him how he would call the home run, should it happen in Dodger Stadium. He said he’d be completely silent, so the fans listening at home could hear the cheers and the boos.
What a dude.

Well, we survived! Not in our backyard!
