Baseball hall of fame question...

[Backwoodshicknole]

So here’s a scenario that will put me over the edge....WHEN Alex Rodriguez gets inducted into the hall of fame in 2022, can I then lose me mind when Barry Bonds, and Roger Clemens are still not there?

Not sure how this is FSU related, but why would you lose your mind if these guys don’t get into the HOF? I promise you that they don’t care what happens in your life.

 

[Backwoodshicknole]

Neither do FSU players, but it’s a sports related question

Were you mad when Pudge Rodriguez was inducted?

Will you be upset when Big Papi gets in but Manny Ramirez can only get in with a ticket?

It’s a likely scenario in sports that

Where you mad when Pudge Rodriguez was inducted?

Will you be upset when Big Papi gets in but Manny Ramirez can only get in with a ticket?

Why would I be mad because pudge was inducted? He deserved it. The scenario is that A-Rod was busted for steroid use. As far as I know, a Supreme Court couldn’t prove anything on Bonds. That’s the point.

Pudge was rumored to be a steroid user. Canseco said he personally injected him.

They all should be in the Hall. It’s a museum about baseball and all of them played roles in the history of the games.

As for getting mad about any of it, take a Xanax and chill.

Again, it’s just a museum.

I wouldn’t say I’m necessarily mad about it, and I absolutely agree that they all should be there. I’ll even throw Rafael Palmerio into the mix...and even though it’s a museum, it lets future generations know that these players were among the best in their sport for a moment in time. And if a-rod gets in and the others don’t, it just makes you wonder where their heads are. A-Rod is doing color commentary for SECSPN, so I’m kinda thinking they’re primping him to be inducted. But then again, maybe I’m being paranoid

I’m going to make one comment on here and that’s it about this situation. steroids in baseball is still on going, it’s going on with a lot more players than u think, Big Mac and sosa brought baseball back with the homerun race when baseball was in need of help with baseball going on strike and Major League Baseball new what was going on but they needed the ratings and didn’t do anything about it!!! 2002 was when they really started to try to put a policy in place, chicks dig the long ball!!!! Big Mac, Clemens, bonds, palmeiro, all deserve to be in, I’m not going to say anymore about it but just remember it’s happening in baseball right now a whole lot more then what people think.

As much as I don't like Bonds, or any of the other steroid users, I don't see how they can be kept out for using. There are plenty of other players already in the Hall of Fame for doing other things that weren't necessarily right. You also have to keep in mind that when these guys started using, it wasn't illegal per baseball rules to do so.

Were these guys potential Hall of Fame players before using? Yes
Did steroids help pad their stats? Yes

If Bud Selig is in the Hall, then all these guys need to be as well.

Now, let's talk about Pete Rose.

Pete should be in there no doubt, Bonds was a 5 tool player at ASU, he already had the tools. Everyone that I have talk to in a baseball clubhouse will tell you Bonds is the greatest hitter to ever play the game, I use to love to talk to older coaches in the clubhouse when I had the opportunity to be in there about guys like Bonds, Arod, and etc.
