Will Alex Rodriguez make it to the Hall of Fame?
In an interview with Peter Gammons, Alex Rodriguez admitted to using performance-enhancing drugs between 2001-2003. No doubt that this is what he had to do in order to get some kind of forgiveness from fans and media. Just look at Barry Bonds and Roger Clemens... they continue to deny using steroids despite the overwhelming evidence against them. Bonds and Clemens will never be forgiven and will never make it to the Hall of Fame. The question is, does A-Rod's confession eventually help him get into the Hall? It shouldn't. My stance is that all users of performance-enhancing drugs should be permanently banned from Cooperstown. Pete Rose, however, should be there.

I think A-Rod makes it in. And that will be what continues his legendary status. First steroid admitted player to get in.
Most ballplayers today are taking homeopathic growth hormone oral spray because it's safe, undetectable, and legal for over the counter sales. As time goes on it seems it might be considered as benign a performance enhancer as coffee, aspirin, red bull, chewing tobacco, and bubble gum.
