Bonds Poll Seperated by Race

It seems that a poll conducted by ESPN/ABC says that whites don't want Bonds to break Aarons record as much as blacks do.

What is new is that the latest poll suggests that black baseball fans
are far more inclined to root for Bonds than white fans. While just 28 percent
of whites say they want Bonds to break Aaron's record, three out of four black
fans are rooting for him to do it.

So it looks like the media is trying to make this a race issue when none exists. Bonds is going after the record of another black guy and not Babe Ruth. Nobody much cared when Bonds passed Babe Ruth while Aaron received death threats. Aaron had to face some of the greatest pitchers of all time while enduring segregated conditions and racism almost his entire career. The whole time Aaron was gracious and likable and wore his hero mantle well.

On the other hand Bonds seems to have just used the Cream and the Clear while being a general ass to almost everyone on his chase for the record. That is the reason why is seems Bonds passing Aaron is getting the same big yawn as when he got the home run title. People just don't like Bonds no matter what skin color he has.

I would be willing to lay even money that when A-Rod or Big Papi pass Bonds there will be allot of hoopla surrounding it. I will certainly be following it more then the big yawn I am getting with Bonds passing Aaron.
