Perhaps the only thing I can find good to say about Barry Bond's home run record is that it won't be on the books very long. Alex Rodriguez will eclipse The Babe (Babe Ruth), The Hammer (Hank Aaron), and The Juice (Barry Bonds) in the next 6 to 10 years depending on his health. Is tonight the night that he will hit 500?

I like that nick name for Bonds -- The Juice -- but it reminds me of O.J. Simpson.

Maybe "The Needle" or "Captain Clear" or "Bondroid" or "Mr. Asterisk".
