Can't wait to take my grandkids to Cooperstown one day and tell them all of the riveting stories I have about watching Craig Biggio play.

Remember when Craig Biggio did.....no, that was somebody else.
what about when Biggio.....no, that was somebody else too.
There was that one time when Biggio.....fuck, that was somebody else as well. What the fuck did Biggio do but accumulate stats?
I promised myself I'd stop caring but yeah it's so dumb it's beyond explanation.Fuck the BBWAA or whatever their acronym is. Piazza not getting in is a crying shame.
Can someone explain to me why Craig Biggio is such a better candidate than Jeff Kent?
There are a few examples of why Kent is a much better player but how about they played two years together and Kent was the better play both years by a huge margin.
Didn't Barroids move up to something like 38% of the vote or something?
I agree with not voting for cheaters.
I don't. Personally I think everyone was cheating in that era so just vote for guys based on merit.I agree with not voting for cheaters.

None of those turned 30 hr/yr hitters into 50+ hr hitters.. I respect what hank Aaron and mick mantle did. Therefore won't recognize what Barry did as a steroid user. Or Sosa or mcgwire or Clemens etcSpitballers
Vaseline
Nail Files
Pine Tar
Stealing Signs
Greenies
Looks like the Hall is going to be reduced quite a bit this year.

Well boo hooMakes sense. I'm sure none of the HOF pitchers would have had their success lessened without doctoring a baseball. I'm sure Mike Schmidt took greenies because he liked the taste. I can't imagine either of those things would ever help a player accumulate better statistics.

Sucks for him.. LolYou mean when this Barry Bonds hit 46 in 1993?
Cool story broLol Aaron and Mantle were hopped up on stuff too. It wasn't banned while these guys did it.
Actually.. it is how it isOh it's a trap. My bad.
Comparing greenies and scuffing the ball to steroids is absolutely ridiculous. It's not about "cheating". It s about how steroids enhanced players performance to video game type numbers.. im not getting into that stupid argument.. if you don't agree.. whoopty doo. It doesn't change anything..have your meaningless argument with someone else.Gooksta doesnt live in a world where logic and consistency matter, you cant debate with him, tho i do love watching people try :laughing

I'd be very surprised if he hits 40% next yr.. it will help guys like mcgriff/Schilling/ piazza and Raines.. doubt it helps bonds or Clemens too much.Gregg Zaun sure was putting in those cheat codes.
Anyways, Bonds is posibly going to get in next year when the only first year guy who will get in is Griffey Jr.
I just don't give a crap about the hall of fame. It lost all its credibility when it voted in every single above average player from the 1920s and 1930s. Great players are still great players. I have much more important things to spend my brianpower on. You're all trogs.
Yeah like figuring out if the Jays signing Ichiro is a good move.
They do when you play on concrete like the Jays do. Injuries happen a lot.
It's really too bad the two biggest users/best players were also the biggest assholes haha.Gregg Zaun sure was putting in those cheat codes.

Wouldn't be surprised if they sign another pen arm.They still need to work on their bullpen and address 2B. Another SP would be nice so they're not relying on youngsters performing right away.
They also are rumored to have signed Vlad Guerrero Jr.
