What do retired baseball players state about steroid use? This is the question which is frequently asked by reporters and widely presented by media. Various individuals have different ideas about this issue.
Recently some retired players of the Major League Baseball were interviewed by certain journalists that tried to learn opinions of the retired players about the steroid era in baseball. Should steroid users be in the Hall of Fame?
Reggie Jackson, Goose Gossage, Dave Henderson, Curt Schillling, Mike Piazza, George Brett and Morgan Ensberg don’t want to see steroid users in the Baseball Hall of Fame.
Later a journalist asked Wade Boggs about this issue as well. This athlete played professional baseball for 18 years. He was asked whether consumers of steroids could be allowed to be chosen for the Hall of Fame. The retired baseball player affirmed that consumers of steroids should not be in the Hall Of Fame. According to his point of view, it is not the best message for American youth. No one should be allowed to be in the Hall of Fame and claim that he is one of the most successful players because he has used anabolic steroids. This is the bad message for the youth of the whole world.
As for the case related to Roger Clemens, Boggs said nothing unpleasant about him.
Roger Clemens was accused of lying before the Congress about intake of steroids and HGH. He was charged with obstruction of Congress, perjury and false statements. But recently he was acquitted by the jury. The decision of the jury dismissed the affirmation that Roger Clemens had success due to usage of forbidden medications.
While Wade Boggs said nothing negative about Roger Clemens, he pronounced several harsh words about pitchers who apply steroids and take unfair advantages.
