Bonds should never ever be in the HOF.

They fricking better. Him and Clemens. If they have Selig in the Hall of Fame, you know, the guy who introduced an era of steroids in baseball, then why the frick is it a problem for Clemens and Bonds to get in? It's ridiculous.

Bonds is a top 5 (and IMO only 2nd to Ruth) player of all time, he should be in. His era was full of juicers, it was a level playing field, and his stats are still mind boggling

Bagwell? Pudge? Piazza? The roid barrier has already been broken. That’s what makes it hypocritical to keep bonds and Clemens out.

That was only speculation though. Barry's head turned into Ken Griffey Jr from the Simpsons.

Technically Bonds is still only speculation. But A Rod will get in with actual positive tests and suspensions. Just watch

Nah, he admitted during his trial in 2011.

Also, regardless of what he was using, his run from 2001-2004 is still the greatest 4 year stretch any athlete in any sport has ever had. His OPS of 1.422 in 2004 is the most mind-boggling statistical achievement ever.


He's arguably the greatest baseball player of all time. It kills the HOF's credibility that he isn't in.

Bonds will NEVER make the Hall of Fame.

Nor should he.

Bonds was good before the roid era, but I’m not sure he was headed for the HOF. He’s an all time great but he’s also a stain on the game.

Just for reference, you could go 2-5 with a HR and a walk EVERY GAME, finish with 162 homers and STILL have a lower OPS than Bonds in 2004.

Vote them in with a confession of cheating next to their plaques.

Make sure it’s huge and signed by players. That’s my compromise.

Any of those guys in the HOF that juiced would come out and say it if they had any integrity.

Those years of following his at bats was scary exciting as a kid. Kobe and Bonds were the first two players that would make me lose myself while watching a game and find frustration from them succeeding. Looking back on it, such awe in Bond's talent.
