I don't doubt that more modern PEDs are more potent in terms of improving performance. And that the Mays/Aaron generation probably got less mileage out of whatever they were taking. My point, though, is that since they all (I believe) knowingly took advantage of whatever edge they could get, it's inappropriate to vilify Bonds, Clemens etc. while giving a pass to Mays, Aaron, etc. from a character perspective. The fact that the drugs in the 60s and 70s were less effective doesn't make that generation more heroic. I believe there is a lot of nostalgia bias in people's assessments.
