I didn’t even know MC Hammer had a blog but he’s giving his 2 cents on the Barry Bonds situation. In an open letter to Bonds, Hammer basically calls everyone a hater and tells Bonds to not to walk away from the game before breaking Hank Aaron’s record.
They want to discourage, pressure you and stress you out, literally. Barry don’t let them fool you. You are loved by many. I love you. You have brought me so much joy in your mastery of the game of baseball. Don’t let the bloodhounds win. Finish the mission. Do it for San Francisco, do it for baseball, do it for your kid’s, do it for your Dad (R.I.P.), and do it for yourself.
Do it for the kid’s? The kid’s what? Someone give MC Hammer a grammar lesson. Then someone tell MC Hammer to shut the hell up. I’m not sure who the millions of fans who are rooting for Barry that Hammer talks about are. Every poll I’ve seen has a majority not wanting Bonds to break the home run record. Wait, why am I even talking about what MC Hammer has to say. This is the guy who went gangsta after his career was failing and made a song called Pumps and a Bump.
Well, Hammer, Bonds might not get a chance. According to this LA Times article, Selig could use his “best interest of the game” powers to suspend Bonds. I don’t think he has the stones but it would be the right thing to do.
