Baseball

1. Look only at career before they took steroids -- this allows Barry Bonds into the HOF keeps out Clemens, Pudge, A Rod, Manny Ramirez, Braun etc. as Barry Bonds was the only 450/450 HR/SB in the history of MLB before the roids and already had 3 MVPs, 9 seasons of over 1.0 OPS, and a wall full of golden gloves. (This is my preferred rule)

2. What do you do with the guys who have been implicated but never had their test results leaked -- I am talking about guys like Biggio, Big Papi, Piazza, etc. The Mitchell report ignored the alleged PED use of the Red Sox and the increase in production and the move to super baggy shirts after Manny arrived from Cleveland with the steroid usage he learned from Joey/Albert Belle?

3. Have a steroid era wing... these were the best players of the cheating era. It does give advantages to the pitchers and hitters that cheated but hey -- they already got the real payday from juicing when they played. The extra revenue stream from having HOF next to your name is miniscule compared to some of the steroid induced contracts that were handed out.


Of course -- I would be remiss to not point out the utter hypocrisy of NOMAR -- who looked like Davey Concepcion when he started playing and Arnold Schwarzenegger at the height of his steroid use. He had the ultimate steroid injury (pulling a muscle from the bone) twice and now talks all high and mighty about steroids without admitting that he and those Sox were rife with it.
