Baseball Writers Association of America fails to elect anyone to the Hall of Fame

[BROWN GUERRERO]

cheaters never prosper

Apparently some do because they are in the HOF.

^^haha...well played sir

 

[Cut-Throat]

No because none of those things boosted everyone's stats unrealistically. No one hit 60 hrs between like 1961-1997. Then like 5 dude's did it from 98 to like 05. Multiple people hit 70. Then they started testing and no one has done it since.

where do you factor in way smaller ball parks and the juiced baseball into the ballooning stats???

 

[:ab:]

I just hope they don't start this steroid witch hunt for football

 

[mExIcaNox4]

barriod and all those guys were on it.....but the same time ROID ERA imo saved baseball after the strike in 94

 

[BROWN GUERRERO]

I assume you also don't recognize the A's 1989 world series, correct? Both Big Mac and Canseco were admittedly on PEDs.

Too many hypocrites out there picking and choosing who and what accomplishments should be tainted.

Nuts to try and deny how bad roids effected numbers. No ones numbers should be the best between the ages of 35-39. Notice how washed up most dudes get by 35 now?

you are right but the only problem with that is,there should be consequences when you get caught cheating...your bring up mark mcguire and jose...thats the reason they will never get into the hall as well...they got caught..

 

[DubbC415]

and because Canseco is a huge faggot

 

[MaC A$$ ViC]

i think bonds is just as much as a faggot as canseco.

yet bonds is arguably the greatest player to ever play the game. he would of been first ballot HOF without the roids. but his legacy will forever be tainted by the balco fiasco.

 

[short]

what pissed me off was curt schilling on sportscenter acting like hes better than the rest of them. i bet he was using steroids with everybody else

real talk

 

[short]

these writers should be banned from electing who goes in...instead get some legends like ozzie smith or tony gwinn to vote on the nominees...4 first ballot hall of famers are up next year frank thomas greg maddux and tom glavine as well as the great mike mussina...some of those faggot writers wont vote for any of those 4 legends in their first year of eligibility

What the hell is the steroid era?
They were using since the day the could and they are still using.

yup..he had enough talent not to use roids to be a 1st balloter..

THIS...but it's going to get tougher. This year they are going to start testing for HGH and soon for testosterone boosters. I thought they already checked for boosters, but ESPN radio is who reported it.

 

[Rumpelstiltskin]

HGH is in and out. You could do it in the bathroom, take a dump, shower, shave your face, then go run blood and your IGF levels will be back to normal. That whole test for HGH concept is extremely flawed.

What if they hit 5iu's at night?
No one is going to wake them up at 3am to draw blood.

Basically, it's just a cover up so people think they are doing something about it.
Also, what if you have a script for HGH from a doctor that says there is something wrong with your pituitary gland? Then what?

There are so many scenarios to get out of being in trouble for HGH, on top it's so easy to get away with it.

Using HGH before bed is bad, because it will shut down your natural release, but what the hell do they care? I'd do it if I relied on it to make millions. Or just do it with your shit, shave and shower in the morning.

 

[Rumpelstiltskin]

Also, there is no such thing as a test booster. Your body makes a certain amount of test. The only way to get more if synthetically. You "can" tell your body to release more but that doesn't matter because they are going to want to see what your levels are based on your roaming AND bound. They can't say "ahh, you have more free now". Well, OK, my body makes that much. So now they want to tell me at what rate my body can release it's own natural test? It isn't even bonded yet.

It's just a bunch of fake bs.

 

[Pansas]

I didn't know HGH was in an out that fast. Thought that could be detected just like steroids are. I'm glad someone on here knows that much about juicing haha

 

[Rumpelstiltskin]

The half life of GH is about 20-30 minutes. Meaning depending on the dosage it could be "undetectable" in an hour or two (max) if you run 3iu or less. To test if your GH is real you need to blast a good 5iu and go run blood within 3 hours.

 

[CHAPO GUZMAN]

baseball writers are fucking stupid... might as well not have let anyone in the hall previously, everyone has and will cheat until they start really testing. You can thank the Player's union for the soft testing too. If you think Hank Aaron and Babe Ruth never cheated... hahaha i'm laughing. Barry Bonds, Palmeiro, McGwire, Canseco, Giambi and Clemens are just few that got caught (knowing or unknowingly)
