How can we define natural occurrences? Tony Gwynn for example, was his mid/late 30s beyond belief huge performance increase a natural occurrence? You’re right, like Canseco said, very few were above suspicion. All the more reason to let the top roid era guys in the HOF.

EDIT: Did anyone watch the documentary and how was it?
Well Tony did crank a career-high 17 HR and 49 2Bs in ‘97 — year 17 for him — so maybe he was slamming Dianabol to get there.

Bonds and Clemens were on a plane of their own, being the best at what they did before roids, then going Ivan Drago when most their age would be fading.
