So what are your views on Steroids and the Hall Of Fame

Well with baseball there was a long period where people inside the sport knew steroids was a big issue, but nobody did anything because it created statistical freaks that were increasing attendance and revenues for the game. Now everything is coming out about how that era is tainted so the people in charge are trying to save face by exposing the players who used steroids. The problem is that aside from a few exceptions, most of the steroid evidence is just speculation and accusation because there was no drug testing. Most of the hard evidence is long gone.

So the baseball higher ups are dealing with the dilemma of "We're 99.5% sure this person used steroids, but due to our own greed/incompetence, we don't have any proof."
