I can't wait until someone just comes out and embraces the steroid use. "Yes, I used them and they are badass. I'd keep using them if they were legal or if I wouldn't get caught."

I think that's just short of what some players will do after this. If he goes in the HOF with no sort of asterisk, why would a player not try? And perhaps not to get to 3000,but maybe to possibly extend his paychecks for a few more years. The latter is actually a very plausible scenario. What's the downside Rick in that. Nothing (unless you have some morality). So high school and college players aren't the MLB's problem, but I think every kid in high school and college have a better idea of what the playing field looks like.

He wont get in. They set the precedent with the others and Palmeiro falling off the Ballet was the closest to ARod stat wise.. It will be a all or nothing, they will keep them out or they will go back and let them all in..

We'll see. 3,000 was an automatic for HOF. But if that's true, good.

Sorry, but I don't think steroids happened overnight in the early 90's. I think players were juicing way before that time. So if players were always juicing, it doesn't for me explain why all of a sudden players in the early 90's started hitting out of their mind. Not by a little. Overnight HRs spiked... "coincidentally" after baseball hit an all-time popularity low. Of course PEDs increase HRs. But the impact on the steroid era are unbelievably exaggerated. I've already mentioned expansion era, smaller strike zones, and new stadiums as a huge contributor to HR increases. Given the coincidental timing of the HR surge, fair to ask if a lively ball or improved bat may have contributed to it too. |

Some of those guys basically became incredible hulk over an off season. Not coincidentally they started to bash homers.
