Barry Bonds' 756th HR ball
 

lmao

[quote:4bcfb]Hip-Hop mogul Marc Ecko (ECKO Clothing, Complex Magazine) bought Barry Bonds 756th home run ball last Saturday (Sept. 15) for $752,467 at Sotheby's/SCP auctions.

Starting today, fans can go http://www.vote756.com and choose to give the ball to the Hall of Fame in Cooperstown, permanently brand the ball with an asterisk before sending it to Cooperstown or put the ball on a rocket ship and launch it into space.

"We all have opinions about this ball," Ecko said. "Some feel it is a piece of history that belongs in the Hall of Fame. Others believe it is the embodiment of a cheating culture - not just in baseball, but in professional sports generally."

Bonds broke Hank Aaron's home record of 755 on August 7 in San Francisco.

"I bought this baseball to democratize the debate over what to do with it and allow the public to decide," Ecko explained.[/quote:4bcfb]

I hope everyone votes to brand the ball rofl...that would be awesome

Just because I want to send random earthly objects into space that got my vote.

i voted brand it, although cooperstown probably wont take it afterwards... it should have it on it wherever it ends up

Brand that piece of shit.

i vote to give it to the IRS since it supposedly has monetary value

On the site, I can't tell if they're making branding it into a good thing or a bad thing.

brand one of his balls and fire the other into space = fixed

branding the ball is basically shoving the record up bonds' ass

the asterisk is supposed to represent an asterisk next to his record indicated steroid use oOo:

Brand it and hope Alex tops the record.

someone cut down the quote tree!!! MURDERERS!!!

Yeah, it was me. Fuck off.
