Pretty simple math really. All managers had some users and some cleans. They had to deal with what they had to work with, fair enough (not discounting payroll inequities, talent differences, etc.) Same as it's always been with Managers. The players who were juiced are being compared to guys who chose to stay clean. That's clearly not fair. Sure, some cheats will get in and some cleans will be "suspect" and not get in. What's new? FWIW if you saw my previous post, it starts with the Owners and just follow the money from there.
