There is no denying that the steroid use of both Bonds and Clemens helped boost their stats and gave them an advantage. But should that advantage deny them access to the H.O.F. No. Not at all. For those who disagree, put yourself in their perspective.
If you’re a player and you want to be the best or the best you can be, you’re going to do everything possible to do so. So if a percentage of the league is using PED’s with no repercussions from Major League Baseball, you join them. At that point, the players aren’t to blame but MLB, especially considering the league obviously knew about the drug use.
