Default Barry Bonds' 756th HR ball - 09-17-2007, 01:27 PM

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
