Joe Morgan and baseball needs to cut the shit and stop this steroid witch hunt. Not one of these fukks gave a shit when baseball was dead on the fukking vine and guys like McGwire, Bonds, Clemens, Sosa, basically saved their asses. Baseball is alive today because of those guys. MLB DID NOT test for steroids, so how the hell can you condemn someone for something you didn't care about? They profited on steroids, they know they did and then they want to hide behind their holier than thou veil. Baseball is full of hypocrites. Guys been cheating since the game has been played. Has anyone been denied Hall of Fame for spit balls or pine tar? How about stealing signals? The entire game has been built on cheating. I stopped going to baseball games until Sosa and McGwire got into their homerun race. That brought me back to baseball. Now you want me to disregard the games that I watched? You want me to throw out the records of guys that brought me back to the game? Fukk that.

Baseball was asleep at the wheel. Performance enhancing drugs was not illegal in baseball. So how can you vilify players that did everything in their power to get bigger, stronger, faster? McGwire used to have Andrestene Sp? in his locker. He didn't give a shit because it wasn't a big deal. Until these fukks tried to make him the fall guy after he brought them back to life from the dead.

Hater. Back in that hypocrites days they were popping speed pills like they were going out of style.

Hater. Back in that hypocrites days they were popping speed pills like they were going out of style.

very big YES to that.

also just this year, baseball inducted the commissioner who turned a blind eye to all the cheating, because the game was at an all time low.

how does Bud Selig get into the hall of fame, when he allowed all this to go on during his watch?

but you penalize some of the great players, who would have been in on their own merits but started taking because shits like Brady Anderson all the sudden were surpassing their level due to drugs?

[2daBank]

Right. I mean if we being honest steroids fukkin saved baseball, keeping the guys out that did them to entertain us is beyond stupid and above all hypocritical.

[MinnesotaFats]

Only the greats will get in from roid era.

Bonds
Clemens
Rodriguez

I think if total acceptance were made then itd open the door to Palmero, McGwire, etc and that's just a floodgate that Cooperstown doesn't need. Congressional investigations, lying under oath, books that name names... you can see why they'd leave those guys out.

[grease lightnin]

Correction:

Only induct players who were not caught using steroids.

Great color guy

Frank Thomas would be considered Babe Ruth if not for everyone else being loaded. He should have his own wing.

Very true. An awesome natural talent. Maybe the only guy in that era who could thrive w/o any supplement help.

His new testosterone ads are pretty funny. Salud, Big Hurt.

Thank you to McGwire, Bonds, Clemens, and Sosa for saving baseball.

But no thank you for entering Baseball's Hall of Fame because you looked like blown up ticks in human form while disgracing the game.

So what's the fuss?

Agreed. And, funny enough, when you break down his numbers he shares the performance arc of batters for the past 100 years. Fuk those other guys.

steroids fukkin saved baseball

Okay, how the hell did steroids save baseball? The league was not going under, by any stretch, player salaries were on the rise and TV contracts were booming. The home run era did not drive growth, it just drove subject matter for 24/7 gayass ESPN reporting.
