I grew up with the big red machine. Loved them. Saw Hank Aaron tie the record in Cincy (while not taking steroids). So, I'm a huge fan.
That being said, Paul is correct. He knew the rules. He broke the rules. He was one of the greatest players. But, he cheated the game.
Does he belong in the hall, yes. Should he be admitted to the hall; once he's dead. Had he come out and admitted it at the time and took his lumps, then he would probably be in by now. But, his arrogance is not what baseball is about (or at least my perception of what baseball once was).
If you let him in, you have to let Barry Bonds in. There's another can of worms.
