MLB sponsors won't celebrate Bonds

Bonds surpassing Babe Ruth's and Hank Aaron's records is the major talk around Major League Baseball. It is even going as far as thsponsoringps involved for the celebration of breaking the records. Some of Major League's national sponsors are very indifferent when it comes to this topic because of the steroid allegations surrounding Bonds. Some say they will sponsor it in a "muted way," like PepsiCo, and some say they won't sponsor it at all, like Bank of America Corp. If you were head of a major company would you want to sponsor the celebrations that go along with this achievement? Or do you think that if you did sponsor these events that it would tarnish the reputation that you are trying to set for your company?
