Bonds homerun ball was auctioned off this weekend and that rhinoceros labeled clothing line, Ecko, bought it. Whats next? The CEO, that prankster Marc Ecko, has decided that he’s leaving it up to millions of haters to decide what to do with the ball.

I bought this baseball to democratize the debate over what to do with it. The idea that some of the best athletes in the country are forced to decide between being competitive and staying natural is troubling.

Yeah, you bought it because you’re a freakin’ genius and buffing this ball’s luster with some mediocrity is brilliant. Ecko has set up a website so you can vote, so get to it.

We also decided to supply a few recommendations as to what we would do. Give us your recommendations too!

• Supply the ball to “The Sandlot 3” for the dog mauling of ball scene.
• Reuse it during the last San Francisco game of the season…against the Los Angeles Dodgers and we hope Jeff Kent blows the cowhide off of it Robert Redford style.
• Place the ball next to Pete Rose’s non-existent plaque in the Hall of Fame, which will most likely be housed in Cooperstown’s finest basement.
• Place it at the bottom of San Francisco’s bay. The ball will find shelter amidst old Alcatraz prisoner’s bones.
• Lastly, give it back to Bonds because we don’t want that shit.

Now you know how we voted.
