Agreed on Biggio. Ashamed that the actions of others, costed him being a 1st ballot HOFer.

Curt Schilling being interviewed live on SportsCenter agrees Biggio should have gotten in on his 1st ballet

Biggio grew up one town over from me on Long Island, graduating a couple years before me. If we hadn't moved when I was younger, my brother would have played football with him. He was known more for football (or at least I followed it more). He's the only kid whose name I remembered even before he made the majors, because he, like Zwinak, didn't start the first few games of the season but ended up leading the county in rushing and won the outstanding player award. I never knew he played baseball til he signed with Houston.

Barry bonds was a hall of famer before he used steroids.

Here's one writer who agrees with you...pretty good writeup.

I was saying that half of his career was hall worthy, if he had retired then, so the full career is HOF worthy too.

I think Jack Morris has only one more year of eligibility left. Schilling is a 1st-year ballot this year.

Agreed, and Clemens was even moreso from his Boston days alone. I've spent the past hour calming down Mets fans here at work who are furious about Piazza not getting in. I'm enjoying that myself.

The difference for me (Yankee fan) is that you can tell when Bonds started Juicing and his stats before then were HOF worthy. We don't know when Clemmons started juicing making his bid much more difficult imo.
