Oh this conversation has been the reason behind many a arguement between us at work! But I stick with my arguement, they took PED's so they shouldn't be in the HOF. They wouldn't have been in the report if there wasn't crediable evidence and the reports have been pretty accurate.
Yes the era was tainted and flooded by roids and people turned a blind eye to it because it was exciting and did put people in the seats but in the end they cheated the sport. I know it doesn't improve hand and eye coordination but they don't call them PERFORMANCE ENHANCING for no reason.
I won't collect those players but as mentioned by another person, if people want to collect them then thats fine.

And my take ... PEDs in baseball have been around forever. Whether it was benign enough as nicotine and caffeine, or illegal as cocaine and amphetamines (greenies) ... Players used these illegal and legal drugs to enhance their performance throughout the history of baseball. Nothing really ever changed, just The sophistication of the enhancement and the focus of the media. When it was benefiting baseball, Bud Selig turned a blind eye. When it was politically correct to chastise players for PEDs is when he finally opened his mouth.
Millionaire Athletes will always try to find 'an edge' to keep them performing better and/or longer. If Bud Selig and the players union were truly sincere and really wanted to end PEDs they would eliminate suspensions and consider immediate expulsion.
