John J. Grilloedited to add: my phrase..."I do not think there is a single educated person..." could've been phrased better; however, with that said..
"educated" doesn't imply highest education level attained...it implies doing a little reading and research on the subject. You do not have to be a college grad to read or research...no level of snobbery intended or implied.
with that said, Jay, yes, Aaron had some great years in his late 30's; however my argument is that he went downhill quickly. When he reached 40 years of age, his stats were awful.
There will be exceptions to the rule. Barry Bonds has talent in perfecting the art of swinging a bat. It's the steriod use, that allows him to maintain a physical and/or emotional intensity that non-steriod users cannot possible match...it's cheating and like I said before, it is banned for a reason.
