Hearing Nothing at the moment
So, a fashion designer named Mark Ecko (I see ads for his shoes occasionally) bought the 756th home run ball of Barry Bonds, and has decided to do something unusual: Let the public decide the fate of the ball:
Marc Ecko, who won the ball in an online auction that wrapped up Saturday, offers three choices:
-- Send the ball directly to the National Baseball Hall of Fame in Cooperstown, N.Y.
-- Send it to Cooperstown after branding it with an asterisk that would acknowledge the public's suspicion that Bonds used steroids to boost his strength.
-- Put the ball on a rocket ship and launch it into space. He isn't saying where he's going to get the rocket ship.
You can vote on which you choose here.
Shooting the ball out into space is tempting, but I think upon sober reflection the thing to do is send it to Cooperstown. Without an asterisk. I know, I'm boring.
What do you think?

I have to say I like the asterisk option. Crass of me, I suppose.
