The media has been stirring up a controversy where there was none, Aaron was graceful, sincere, heartfelt, in his videotaped statement. No Selig copout with qualifications, his is the speech that the Commissioner should have done, as it tied the events of the here and now with the history of baseball and with the future of the game. I doubt any of the media will admit their mistake in casting aspersions towards Aaron's feelings towards Barry, or suggesting that there was problems between the two of them, the speech said it all.
