Be more concerned with your character than your reputation, because your character is what you really are, while your reputation is merely what others think you are .

Anybody who doesn't think Frank Thomas is a Hall of Famer deserves to be publically ridiculed. I don't care!

They deserve more ridicule than anybody when it comes to Thomas.

hehe
good point
You insist that there is something a machine cannot do. If you will tell me precisely what it is that a machine cannot do, then I can always make a machine which will do just that! -J. von Neumann

there are people, hof voters, that didn't think babe ruth or hank aaron were hall worthy either so is it really so hard to think some might not think frank thomas is hall worthy?

For a lead role in a cage
Cy Young only got 76% of the vote. Rogers Hornsby, 78%.

Those people are idiots. I'm sorry, but anybody that does not think Babe Ruth or Hank Aaron is worthy of the Hall of Fame is just stupid and does not deserve to be voting on baseball's great honor.

I think you are all kind of naive.
I don't know for sure if Griffey or Thomas juiced, but I definetly can't say for sure that they didn't. To say a person 'has' to get bigger by using roids isn't accurate either, but that fact was refuted anyhow as Griffey has gotten bigger.
I believe most players juiced in one form or another. Someone said Griffey couldn't have juiced because juice would've gotten him back quicker from injury, but I"d counter saying the juice was the cause of the frequent injurys. Thats not entirely true either of course, juice didn't cause the broken bones but it may not be entirely false though either.
Too many people want to accuse those they don't like and defend those they do. Sure Grif's a nice guy....he also has been reported as someone close to Bonds. In fact I think the story went down as Bonds was pissed because they all new McGwire was juicing, and told Griffey over dinner that he was going to do all he could to catch him. Quite a conversation. Thats all speculation.
Yes Grif had a pretty swing, probably didn't need juice. But neither did Bonds. Thomas has adamently argued against roids.........so has Clemens. One is a fan favorite, one is not.
I believe more people in MLB are using or have used some form of illegal PED than have not. Far more in fact. Caminiti said many years ago that it was rampant! Canseco has said the same and has been found right on most of his statements.
Nice guys or not (bagwell), don't be so quick to defend them. Thats just as wrong as being to quick to accuse.
o
Yep. As much as a douchebag Canseco is, I think he's spot on in that the majority of players, while maybe not being frequent users on steroid plans and what not, did at least try some form of a PED at some point or another.

Of course they did... the owners wanted them too. The fans loved it, right up until they were presented with the fact that player actually did. Then of course we all must be anti-drug. Drugs are bad! uga, booga!

Steriods was a reason why there was soo many superstars in the 90's, now there are less, and the ones left are aging. Ken Griffey will go down as one of the most beloved players of this era. I still have his return to Seattle on my TIVO, and went to the first game back...wow is all I can say.
