I gotcha. And yes, I agree. Bonds does belong.

Clemens as well?

Yeah, probably.  But they also do lots of good stuff too.

For instance, when that SF fan got beat up in LA a few years ago, Bonds paid for all his kids' college.  And he asked the family to not go public with it.

Clemens works with children and does charity work.....etc.

Both have nothing to do with on field performance so are moot for HoF.

Theres a lot of stuff about old Pete that baseball never released because they didn't want to destroy his reputation...He definitely bet on his own team...and other stuff

I don't give a shit about any of that. The guy played BALLS OUT every game. Amazing durability and a once in a generation player. STILL the all-time career hits leader. I met the man at an autograph signing and he's legit good dude. yeah yeah...i know....he was paid to be there...whatever...the man let me into his world for 20 minutes eye to eye talking about his greatest moments. It was surreal.

All sell and good...I loved Pete as a player and wish he was in the hall as well..but he bet on own his own team and rumors are he bet on them TO LOSE...

Also it was revealed recently that Pete was offered a deal whereby he would not get into the hall right away and would disassociate himself voluntarily from baseball for a little while until things died down and then they could sneak him into the hall but he went public, decided to fight the charges and then when shown the evidence they had against him, he backed off and slinked away like a snake....he totally destroyed the integrity of the game and was arrogant about it
