Players haven't been much better. The Veterans Committee is famous for ex-players voting their teamates in. The writers are actually ticked at them for dropping the standards by letting in their rejects.

I think so, but it's a tough call since they weren't against the rules at the time most were using.

Anything, I mean anything would be better than letting the media have a say.

Yes, but not an eliminating factor.
Name me an old-school Hall of Famer from the '30s on who you can reasonably say WASN'T using amphetamines. You can't. Baseball players have been taking things to improve bodily performance for the entire history of the game. Players will always be looking to whatever they can get away with to get an edge. |

Same media snobs that are HOF voters ate up all of the homeruns and celebrated them. They can stick it with their holier than thou crap now.

Who makes the Hall first? Sosa, McGwire, Palmeriro, Bonds, Or Clemons or Johnny Damon? Don't laugh, Damon is only 254 hits away from 3000.

There are plenty of black dudes already in the HOF.

Here's the way I see it. Steroids help people recover from injuries more quickly. How can you tell someone who is injured, "you can't use steroids to heal faster. You have to just sit there and be injured even though there is a way to heal more quickly"?
