He will NOT be a first ballot inductee when eligible..
Meanwhile, I posted yesterday, somewhat tongue in cheek..that ALL the suspended players ( except Braun) are Latino...nobody in the sports media has touched that one as yet..

Drug user, fornicator and selfish, deceptive narcissist. No doubt he reflects the values and customs the culture that spawned him. Hall of Fame? He is a prime candidate to be a Democratic nominee.

No one who artificially enhanced their stats through anything should be in the hall of fame.
Rodriguez admitted to doing so earlier in his career, he’s accused of it again, but that he’s already admitted to past use is all I need to know. It means his stats aren’t real.
Since his stats aren’t real, he shouldn’t be in the Hall of Fame. It’s not even a hard question to answer.

This clown fails to see the absurdity of skipping over Bonds to induct AR. And after citing Bonds as having better stats.
To: NotYourAverageDhimmi
He belongs in the Hall of Shame.

If he was,in fact,using steroids...or anything resembling steroids...he doesn't belong in the Hall of Fame any more than does Pete Rose.
To: NotYourAverageDhimmi
Yeah, he belongs in the Dopers Hall of Fame.

Inducting drug-enhanced record holders is no different than giving a Nobel Prize to assholes who have done nothing at all (most accomplish nothing, though drug-enhanced, in that case).

He will never get in. It’s not all about numbers. Obviously, this author hasn’t read the voting rules that refer to integrity and sportsmanship. This is why Bonds, McGwire and the rest of the cheaters will never get in either.

I read a story last night that MLB is aware young Caribbeans are using steroids since in their countries there is no regulation compared to here and then drafting them to play over Americans that work the old fashioned way.

LOL! That was awesome.
