Barry - the Baseball Killer

Awesome. What I've been thinking about for a few weeks now has finally been quantified with facts and figures. Barry Bonds only has 600some valid homeruns.

Barry Bonds is killing Baseball. (Notice that I used a capital B in Baseball, meaning that he is not "killing the ball" like hitting it, but ruining Baseball the sport.) His chemically-induced record breaking is not just breaking time-honored and tested records. It is actually hurting the reputation (not so important) and the integrity (REALLY IMPORTANT) of Baseball. Say what you want about all the $$ that the players make, at least most of them actually perform for their money and don't cheat the system. Barry Bonds needs to be taken out of the game, one way or another. And NOW.

Why is it that many effeminate men have broken through the glass floor of the title "stewardess" but there are very very few female pilots in the commercial airline industry?
American Airlines says 4.5% of all their pilots are women.
