You cheat, you should not be rewarded. Why should exceptions be made for really good athletes? Should exceptions be made for really good Bankers, CEOs, etc. who break the rules but got results?

POLL: Should Barry Bonds be in the Hall of Fame?

Mr. Belding The easy way out

If Pete Rose isn't eligible, Bonds (and all juicers) shouldn't be either

Problem is, how do we know who juiced and who didn't.

most of the league was juicing. Bonds just separated himself from the rest

If they get caught, they get held accountable

I agree, but the hall of fame is a weird form of enforcing punishment.

I can agree with that. That's why the Pete Rose thing bugs me

Frank Castiglione

Agreed. Let them all in. Go ahead and let them make a speech and point out their flaws.

Throw in Yankees from the past 20-30 years, and I'm on board with ya

I’m okay with Mo and Jeter. And when CC goes in as a Yankee part of me will break.

Unpopular opinion: Rose’s baseball sins are worse than PEDs.

One of the best players to play the game ever. He was so good even before juice

archie

It's to bad, I think both him and ARod could have been in that conversation

Where is the option for I don't care?

Yes and so should the other juicers. And Pete Rose.
