Since disagreeing is what I do, I'm going to take another hack at the dead horse. I generally agree with much of what you said as far as A-Rod not being sorry, but regretting getting caught. I also agree that we can't say for certain what happens the day you stop taking steroids, or that we know he isn't on HGH right now, because we can't test for the shit. I am also sick of watching or listening to this debate.
I would also like to point out that keeping every person who admitted or was accused of taking steroids out of the Hall of Fame is asinine. Is cheating really cheating when you know goddamn well a whole shitload of other players were doing it? While it isn't fair to the players that weren't taking it, how can we believe THEM? Don't we almost have to go the communist route and just make every player that has ever played guilty until proven innocent? Or better yet, until we pony up for an HGH test (which is dumb since they will find something else to get an edge), just forget the whole fucking thing and let everyone in? I totally got on a tangent here, but it is crazy that there is all this witch hunting going on for some, and total ignorance about others in baseball, while we just ignore the fact that there is a 99% (based on thorough scientific testing) chance that every NFL player is on something, but we don't give a shit because the numbers don't "matter" as much.
Alright, back to what the whole point was: I think Joe Blow Rottencrotch from Bumfuck, USA wants to forgive players who apologize because he is so pissed at the assholes that refuse to acknowledge what we know with almost complete certainty is true. While A-Rod's "apology" wasn't all that sincere, at least he isn't treating Joe Blow Rottencrotch like a COMPLETE fucking moron like Bonds and Clemens are. So to that extent, admitting guilt is the right thing to do.

I would be one of those voters who does not vote for those involved with steroids. I'm a huge fan of communism.
I believe you meant 'witch' hunt.
A-Rod is treating the public as idiots right now just as much as Bonds and Clemens. The only difference is most of the public are idiots for believing him. Tell my how it makes any sense that he took roids when he went to Texas because of the pressure. Then he gets traded to an organization that probably puts more pressure on a player than any other organization in sports and he decides to quit cheating. He had some sort of spinal chord injury that put him out of spring training for 2 weeks so he quit. What a bunch of bullshit. He may not still be on roids, but there is no change he quit when he said he did.
No player that tests positive in the HOF. If you were smart enough, sly enough, or just plain lucky enough to not get caught, and you are good enough to be in the hall; congrats you are going to Cooperstown. You are stupid enough to do it and get caught, fuck you go hang out with Mark McGwire.
Amen Ricky.
