from todays NYT ..McGwire was turned down again although he is eighth all-time with 583 home runs. Normally, that would be enough to get anybody elected to the Hall, but times have not been normal since players’ shoulders began merging with their enlarged craniums back in the mid-‘90’s.

Since retiring after the 2001 season, McGwire has become the canary in the coal mine for Barry Bonds, Sammy Sosa and Roger Clemens, all of whom become eligible in 2013.

Come to think of it, Bonds and Sosa would be wise to find a team that needs an immobile and aged designated hitter, to postpone their day of reckoning with the hangin’ jury of baseball writers who are the Hall voters. .....the hangin jury awaits Corky

Many diehards will hang onto the memories of Babe Ruth, Cy Young, Hank
Aaron and Willie Mays, but a close look at the records will erase all doubt
that Bonds is the best ever........He has won the NLMVP seven times, four times more than the next closest player. He became the second man to enter in the 40/40 club (forty home runs and forty stolen bases.) Undeniably, he has the best eye of any player ever (he holds the top three single season walks records). I could go on about his accomplishments, but because of the controversy, no one would listen. Before he started making baseballs land in McCovey Cove by the hundreds, he could have been considered one of the best ballplayers of all time. Now, it is impossible to imagine him as anything other than one of the very few elite. No one can argue that.

Simply put, Barry Bonds is the best ballplayer that most of us will ever see.

Its a pity that Bonds tainted himself the way he did..... He exploded all of a sudden and that will marr his chances.... legitimate players like Aaron dont like him .. that has to mean something... those sudden rise in stats are very questionable.....
Sammy will be a HFer... think about it.. those that dont like him will find excuses but his numbers and achievements speak for themselves.... ademas, Sammy was the AMBASSADOR to baseball.. he and McGwire rescued baseball and if McGwire would have been a tad friendlier it would have made a great Baseball after game show!!! hahha!

I believe that once enough time passes to gain some perspective of the issue, Bonds will be remembered - rightfully so - as the best player of his era. Edited on 1/12/2009 7:40 PM by yumnuk3.

The best player deserves to be a Hall of Famer. Charlie Hustle played the game harder than anyone ever had. With limited talent he proved that a person can overcome the greatest odds and become a superstar. His mistake should not cost him forever. FREE PETE

Sterry Berry Bonds has admitted to using it (the cream, the gel , whatever!!).. his girlfriend testified to juicing him up.... his case will be hard to get the vote.... Sammy's case is a lot cleaner.... besides in the famous cork case , which you've adopted it to attribute to him deosnt have a leg to stand on......remember the bat boy who confessed to have given him that bat... remember the 23 or so bats in his locker room that were scanned that same day and do you know what they found??? NADA !!!! so i dont think he's gulity of anything there either! Out the top 20 homerun leaders alltime, there are three out four hispanics , the top one being Sammy and Alex cathcing up ./..... what are you going to say about alex... MAnny should hav eno problem taking Sammy's or Ken's place............ what are you going to say about Manny ?? ehhhhh??? atrevete!! By the way , how many PRicans are in the top 20 ??
