What about poor ol' Raffy? There's not much proof Raffy did it. He may have only used it once when he got caught. It's not fair. :p

Aaaah, Raffy. What a guy. Really, if it wasn't for Sosa suddenly forgetting how to speak English and needing an interpreter in front of Congress, Palmeiro would win the award for funniest denial. Heck, you HAVE to laugh at this stuff to some degree, or you'll go mad.

There seems to be many people that prefer to be mad...

I'd prefer that they're outed and declared inelligible for the HOF. Let them continue to play if you must (steroid free of course), but just make it public when they get bagged.

I'm pretty sure we'll be declaring many players inelligible for the Hall in that case. The steroid problem probably runs deeper than any of us even know.

It's a conspiracy!

or want to know, MLB knows that if they get one or two scapegoats everyone will be happy, no need to get more just people the fans hate will be enough....

Good. I'm okay with players having to have a great deal of natural talent and physical gift in order to be eligible for it. 500 isn't a common HR total and wasn't all that common until the 'roid era. Why should the HOF be open to cheaters just because a lot of players cheat? It shouldn't. Everyone who tested positive should be permanently ineligible for Cooperstown. That alone would probably deter a lot of players. Toss in a meaningful suspension for a first offense, permanent for #2, and allow the team to negate any and all monies owed that player, and maybe like the NFL, allow them to go after that player for damages.
