Do you think he'll get 'a big head' again? :confused:

I guess the next stop is the Hall Of Fame..



NOT!

I don't think his perjury conviction is what will keep him out.

I agree, NOT!

"Not guilty" is not the same as "innocent."

Do you think he'll get 'a big head' again? :confused:

Is that his head or a weather balloon?

absolutely vote for him. He was not great because he cheated. If all it took was popping a few pills to be an all time great please explain Ozzie Canseco and Jeremy Giambi.

Drugs made minor league players into major leaguers. What's there to explain? Drugs turned Bonds from a guy on pace to hit 350-400 HRs in Pittsburgh to one who broke Aaron's record by cheating. You don't vote for him because his numbers are a product of cheating. Cheating should never be rewarded. No one knows what Bonds would have done without doping. Would he have been like Dale Murphy after 2 MVPs and only have a couple more productive years or would he have had many more productive years and been HOF worthy? No one knows.

bonds and clemens WERE both on their way to Cooperstown, but they took a big-time detour.

What they have done is make so that every time someone gets on a hot streak, they are suspect. Nobody can deny that!

The All-Time Leaders Lists are virtually meaningless now.

Once you loose trust and respect, it is very, very difficult to get it back. Oh, and being a jerk certainly does not help.

They dishonored the fans, the game, and most importantly, those who came before and did it honestly.
