How dumb is Barry Bonds, I mean seriously.

Here is the quote from Bonds: "I don't think you can put an asterisk in the game of baseball, and I don't think that the Hall of Fame can accept an asterisk," Bonds said. "You cannot give people the freedom, the right to alter history. You can't do it. There's no such thing as an asterisk in baseball."

Haha, I mean really? I'm actually checking my sources on this right now but I am pretty sure that is the dumbest statement ever. Really? No asteriks in baseball? In 7 years when your heart explodes from the amount of steroids you took you can ask Roger Maris about it and he will probably try to assault you with anything he can find. And not according to wikipedia (they say the opposite) but according to the baseball-almanac there was an asterik in the record book for the remainder of Maris' life. Here is a quote from Maris "They acted as though I was doing something wrong, poisoning the record books or something. Do you know what I have to show for sixty-one home runs? Nothing. Exactly nothing."

Bonds' is an idiot to think that there are no asteriks in baseball after what happened to this record. They will slap an asterik all over that record and they will do what they please to your record. At this point everyone in the world believes that you did steroids find a way to sway that the other way and your asterik can be removed. And for people to agree with him on anything is awful. I don't care what happens to the ball and niether should he. The baseball is a sphere and it can just as easily be turned around and the asterik face the other way. Whatever I can't deal with this business simply because too many "experts" agree with him on this one. I say experts because I can't believe what anyone says about baseball anymore on tv because they are all idiots. Espiecally ESPN and their staff of writers that are so called experts when no one to this point has referenced that an asterik has existed in baseball before. Which taking Bonds' comment at face value is what he is talking about. I could be wrong here but I am pretty sure he is talking about his record not the ball anyways.
