    Sosa Hits 600

    Congrats to Sammy Sosa on becoming only the 5th player in MLB history to hit 600 homeruns. It is quite an accomplishment and he has done better than I thought he would this season. It was only fitting that #600 came against his old team the Cubs.

    Awesome. I will watch that highlight when I get home. Congrats to Sammy. At least he is clean now.

    Very nice to see despite all the controversy. I am happy for him. 1 of only 5 players to reach 600. More to come from many other sluggers. But great job by Sammy!

    Meh, I still have the issue of SI in which Sammy made an ass of himself when he lashed at Rick Reilly, who asked Sammy to take a stand by taking a drug test.

    Easily one of the best Reilly columns.
    I did a lot of good things as a sim league GM.

    Ah, give me something clever to say here.

    Sosa couldn't do it since it was against the union's rules. Reilly knew that but kept going after him anyway.

    Rick Reilly is a classless piece of shit for doing that, thats why I do not read his ****ing collumns on SI, if I was in Sosa's shoes at that time, I would have seriously punched the living shit out of him with no regrets whatsover, just like how Deion Sanders punched Tim McCarver.

    Also congrats to Sosa for this amazing milestone! Keep proving your doubters wrong, keep it comming!
