Is Hammerin’ Hank doing the right thing?

The Count Down is on!! With Barry Bonds fast approaching Hank Aaron’s hallowed home run record of 755, we now find that Hank has decided not to attend the impending game to celebrate the new home run king. Aaron has recently appeared on ESPN saying he has no plans to be present. This is just another blow to a sport that is struggling to maintain its credibility. Major league Baseball is currently covered by a cloud of steroid abuse, highlighted by a tell all book, authored by former MLB player, Jose Canseco. This year we’ve seen Mark McGwire not get accepted to Cooperstown ( MLB Hall of Fame ) in his first bid. The world has watched Rafael Palmeiro get embarrassed by a positive steroid test result, after emphatically denying use in front of US congress, and the one thing everyone can celebrate, the home run record, has now been dealt a blow by Hank Aaron’s refusal to acknowledge the passing of the torch. The Big Man would like to hear from you. Is Hammerin’ Hank doing the right thing? I look forward to your assessment..
