keeping bonds out hurts the hall of fame not bonds. it's not for the players but for the fans who want to see the best there was of that era. PED, s or not Bonds what head and shoulders above those who were proven users and those who weren't and it's not even close. Bonds stands out glaringly because he was so much better than his peers. Pete Rose gambling doesn't stand out as much keeping him out because he played in the same era as a willie mays or brooks Robinson Reggie Jackson. Johnny Bench. to me there are those who get in with numbers and those who change the game itself and made it more exciting. should be two levels of it. A lot of the guys getting in i dont put them in the same category of some of the legends who made the game exciting to watch
lol, I’m gonna end up volunteering to build y’all a real desk for your set. The folding tables with wood paneling leaned against….to paraphrase Domingo Ayala, “what are you guys, semi-pro?”
I think there needs to be a separate wing of Cooperstown that holds the pictures and stats of cheaters in MLB that made the record books, from the Black Sox to the Steroid Era to the 2017 Astros. Don’t ignore and sweep it under the rug. Acknowledge it as those things are a part of history.
Barry Bonds is simply the greatest baseball player to have walked the face of the earth. Period. He was never suspended for PED use and was cleared of any wrongdoing in our nation’s court system. His absence from the HOF is truly shameful.
Obviously the principles involved here are way over your head. They cheated the game, during that time the sport lost its integrity. Clean players were at a huge disadvantage. Those who cheated forfeited their tickets to the HOF. Mistakes in life can ruin everything that you worked for- these dudes cheated a game that afforded them a life most can only dream about.
@@Matasky2010 Please take your sanctimonious drivel somewhere else sunshine. Those two guys, plus McGwire, Sosa among others defined their era. Two of my favorite in person baseball memories involve Bonds in one and Clemens the other. They are HOF worthy and none of this holier than though BS spouted by virtue signalers will change that fact. While we are it, Peter Rose should be in as well. Now go grab a paper bag and hyper-ventilate if you need to.
@@timmurphy5736 You MAGA Trumpers just dunt belief in rules does you? If you new base ball (two words) as well as I does, you wood no that every spring traning, all the playas wood be told "If use gambol, you get band."
it's going to happen eventually since some people keep crying about it. Atleast for me those players will always have an asterisk next to them.
My knee-jerk reaction was Dale Murphy should definitely be in the HOF. After checking the numbers, though....I'm not sure.
Cheating is cheating. They shouldn't get in.
They were all going in anyway 😅
Wasn’t against the rules back then.
Respect Tom Glavine immensely, but his answer is a complete cop-out.

Mike Piaxxa is in the Hall of Flame ........ and he was juiced ....
The PED guys got the money and the fame...do they really have to have that?
The PED users from the 50s, 60s, and 70s in the Hall never faced any scrutiny for their PED use.
@@WonkNRoll dont forget about the people who abused greenies
so many are in HOF that roided
yup
Most were doing it - so it was a wash

Barry Bonds and Roger Clemens were the best in baseball for 20 years. They are HOF. Simple as.
