Congratulations to Barry Bonds. I don't care what anybody else says. This was a hell of an achievement. I for one plan to celebrate it. Well done, Barry. Well done.
UPDATE: I agree with Matt Yglesias:
[T]he day when MLB invalidates all the other records from the Steroid Era -- rescinds the World Series titles and the division pennants, takes back the Cy Young awards and the Golden Gloves, etc., etc., etc. -- I suppose it would make sense to take Bonds' achievements away too. But until that happens, the records are the records and he played better than anyone else.
It would be easier to be happy for Bonds if he wasn't such a self-righteous jerk with a bad attitude. I'm pulling for A-Rod. Nope, he's not perfect, but at least the guy can has manners.
