Disagree with Pudge....he's one of the best all-time offensive catchers....and a 13 time Gold Glove winner. He was a slam dunk. Also the alltime game leader for catchers.
- mykokes

Sure, I'll accept that based on his body of work Pudge should be a slam dunk. But he's also faced PED allegations.

Bonds' career stats are the best in the history of the game and he hasn't admitted to PEDs, never failed a test, and he was acquitted on perjury charges for stating under oath that he's never used PEDs.

Now I'm not saying I don't think Bonds didn't juice, I think he did. I think Pudge did too. How do you induct Pudge, but not Bonds?

This is what I don't understand.

Bagwell - Borderline (traditional) HOF stats, PED allegations, HOF inductee
Pudge - Borderline (traditional) HOF stats, PED allegations, HOF inductee (1st ballot)
Clemens - Slam Dunk HOF stats, PED allegations, blackballed from HOF
Bonds - Best Ever HOF stats, PED allegations, blackballed from HOF

If you cheat you should be banned..

Clemens might be the GOAT, but he (frank)ing cheated so (frank) him..

He never failed a test or admitted to it. Where do you draw the line between fact and rumour?

They should be testing every hockey player too, and if you get caught your point totals should be set back to zero

Are you kidding me?

I do remember that time this year that he fell on the ice, but had the strength of mind and body to get up and skate on.

Bravo, MaxiPad. Bravo.

Witnesses could have other reasons for accusing somebody of something.

My point is that Pudge Rodriguez has had witnesses come forward stating they personally injected him with roids, but he was inducted into the HOF yesterday. Why does he get in and not Clemens?

I remember that. It took the linesmen a few minutes to figure out where to drop the puck on the next faceoff.

he shouldnt be.. you're right.

Just another reason to not watch MLB and NFL... I'm sure the NHL isn't much different and if theres league wide doping allegations maybe i'll nix it too... It's sucks that the integrity of our favorite pastimes is whitewashed by greed. This is the world we accept, we make the bed, we sleep in it.

Me too, Hosie!

Taking my two girls.

Older one has a phenomenal record when attending games (which is pretty impressive, considering she is 11 years old - not a lot to work with).

We all know the #1 PED in hockey is cocaine.

"Smelling salts"

- .HOHO.

Just let them juice in all sports and have them all rage the (frank) out.

Edit: NBA players can just wear moonshoes.

Its any sport, hockey is no different. Olympics ..all sports at the highest levels are littered with PEDs.

Ah ok.

So no...not that film.

But is that any good?
- Fakepartofme

In its day, it was cutting edge. If you are a sci-fi nerd with grey hair, you consider it to be a must-see. Or at least you did consider it that.

I haven't seen it in...hell, it might be 20 years now. I sincerely doubt that it would stand up today.

But it is required watching if you want to watch the film Free Enterprise - and trust me, you want to watch the film Free Enterprise.

Absolutely. But luckily for all, Masterton Max's microfractures just turned out to not be too bad afterall. I was able to sleep that night.

That time you realized your smelling salts might be Bolivian pure.

I don't know how many folks here have used smelling salts, but if people sniff them and don't throw their head back from the smell, that's an immediate signal to check what they were actually sniffing
