Clemens deserves to be in Cooperstown


I don't care if he did steroids, Roger Clemens is still one of the best pitchers of all-time and is a hall of famer. Of course, a lot of the fucktards who have votes won't vote for him.

Even if you erase all of his numbers from when he was presumably on the juice (after he left Boston), he's still a hall of famer.

From 1984-1996 (his last year with the Red Sox), Clemens was the best pitcher in baseball. Three Cy Youngs (86, 87, 91) and an MVP (86). He also should have won the Cy Young in 1990. But of course the dipshits doing the voting gave it to Bob Welch because he had six more wins and didn't care that his ERA was a run higher than the Rocket's.

When you're the best pitcher in baseball for a twelve year period, you're a hall of famer. Anyone who doesn't vote for him should have their voting privelages taken away.

  1. Well this is an argument you can make for a lot of people from this era. Mark McGwire, Sammy Sosa, Gary Sheffield, and Barry Bonds all off the top of my head. All should be in the hall, but none of them will be voted in. Fucktards indeed.

  2. Ironic that we aspire to be those fucktards?

  3. Yes I aspire to be a sportswriter, but I would do a much better job on hall of fame voting than most of the current voters.

  4. I hope to never see any of the five of them in the hall. It's difficult to consider the vast majority of baseball i've seen in my lifetime as invalid, but i've come to grips with it. I'd see Pete Rose inducted before any of them.
