It's been going on so long now and everywhere you turn it's always Palmeiro, Sosa, Mcgwire, Bonds, Giambi over and over. You start to get desensitized to the sensationalistic journalism that is employed. If the ultimate question is do I still think he should be in the hall, then yes.. but that is based solely on his pre-juice performance and not on breaking the alltime homer record. |
Then I am assuming you are for Pete Rose being in the Hall as well.
I for one think it will taint an already tainted profession if he makes it into the Hall; hell when he breaks the homerun record it will cast a darker cloud over baseball.
