And for the record I think using steroids is cheating but if you don't ban them then I don't see how you can punish players who use them.

Whether or not there was an explicit rule the players knew it was unethical and illegal, so to me that doesn't really matter.
Like I said, it's not the HOF or writers fault MLB was slow to react.
I agree the writers are too full of themselves, though. There's definitely something distasteful about the pompous way a lot of these guys view the process.
