BTW, of the three who had milestones this week, for me it's

1. Glavine
2. A-Rod
3. Bonds

I just don't like Bonds very much. Not a Roger Clemens fan either. I bet you Gregg Maddux and Glavine never used steroids

I am certain Hank Aaron never did, (I am a HUGE Henry Aaron fan).

If someone from the current crop were to break his record, my preference would be Ken Griffey Jr, but he won't do it. My guess is in 7 years or so, A-Rod will end up being the home run king. But there will never be another Henry Aaron - a man who didn't even consider himself a home run hitter - just a hitter. .

His goals were pretty simple:
30 home runs
100 RBI
100 Runs
.300 Batting Average

Every year. He was great at that. He thought scoring and driving in runs was more important than home runs.

Aaron is a class act.
