Very good post by Freddie. I think that A-Fraud has a problem. It also points out how arragent baseball owners are and also the baseball commission. They know what was going on but it sold tickets so they just watched.

There was a period of dead ball baseball and this will be known as the steroid period of baseball and life will go on. Unless someone like Clemmons and Bonds rubs the fans noses in it, baseball will not take any actions. I do not see the guys voting for the hall of fame denying anyone that didn't get caught with their fingers in the cookie jar. The other foot could drop if the list of the other 124 guys who failed the steroid test a few years ago like A-Fraud gets published and the fans raise a stink. THe owners will respond if it is in their best financial interest to do so. If not, players like [fill in the name of your favorite druggie baseball player] get 5 chances after flunking drug tests to prove they really didn't mean to do drugs.
