755 came in San Diego, and to the surprise of many, the reception was more cheering than jeering and seemed to represent that regardless of anything else, it is clear that Barry Bonds’ latest home run means a great deal. With Bonds’ homerun record of 756, surpassing Hank Aaron, the debate will soon shift from the recognition that he deserves for his accomplishment to his legacy and his place in history. Only the naïve, and Willie Brown, still believe that Barry’s record is completely clean.

Following the 2006-07 NCAA football season, Darius Walker was faced with a choice: Should he head to the pros after his junior season or stick around one more year with the Fighting Irish and Coach Weis? If he chose to stay, he almost certainly would have broken the Notre Dame’s career rushing record and become known as one of the top running backs in school history. He would have been the focal point of the team’s offense, and though good defenses would stack the box against him, he would have had monster games against Army, Navy and the other powder puff squads Notre Dame faces each year. He would have even gotten a fair amount of Heisman hype with the increased exposure from Notre Dame’s deal with NBC.

LeBron James is twenty-two years old. He never went to college and spent most of his formative years focusing on the game that he loves to play: Basketball. He probably spends the majority of his time these days staying in peak physical condition, training for basketball, and enjoying being a ridiculously young multi-millionaire when he is not filming his next Sprite or Nike commercial. What he does not do with his time is support the efforts to stop the Genocide in Darfur.

Following the 2003-04 season, everyone saw Shaq’s move to the Miami Heat as the creation of another contender for the NBA Championship in the East. There was no question that it helped create an increased balance between the Eastern and Western Conference. What couldn't be known at the time is how the trade would eventually create a greater imbalance in the conferences by the change in the style of play on each coast.
