Now let's all ignore him until it is time for a fan campaign against his inclusion in the Hall of Fame.

For one spectacular moment, Barry Bonds and everybody cheering him could forget about the controversy surrounding his chase and appreciate the phenomenal feat: 756.

Nobody in the majors — not Hank Aaron, not Babe Ruth — has ever hit more home runs than the San Francisco star.

On Tuesday night, in his home ballpark, it didn't matter how many of them might have been fueled by steroids or performance-enhancers. Bonds has the title of home run king all to himself, ending Aaron's 33-year reign.

"This record is not tainted at all. At all. Period," Bonds said.

Here's hoping that enough evidence of illegal steroid abuse does emerge to result in banning Bonds from the game, the Hall, and any connection with baseball.
