"The Voters will never elect somebody who they think took P.E.D's"  Mike lambasted the caller "Did McGwire get in?  Did Canseco get in?"

The caller didn't even get a chance to tell Francesa that those players were good but they weren't in Bonds' class.

Then two days later Francesa listed A-Rod among current Yankees' destined for the HOF.

Why the double standard for A-Rod and Bonds?   

Is it just because A Rod admitted he juiced after he tested positive or is there something else? 

Singleton also mentioned that A-Rod was a future Hall of Famer when they showed him on screen with Pujols comparing their numbers. It's surprising to me that those guys seem to think that A-Rod will be in. I would've expected most people to have him out of the Hall because of his steroid use, but I guess duration of use must play a role. That and the fact that A-Rod admitted it while nearly everyone else who is suspected has covered it up.

Singleton would have to say that, he's a company Yes man through and through. Love Kenny as a color guy, but he's not somebody who would ever offer an independent (as in interesting) POV on any subject.

who in gods name is mike francesa?

He has the biggest sports talk show in NY. They simulcast his show on YES every afternoon.  He used to be teamed with Mad Dog Russo for years but they split up a few years ago and Russo went to Sirius radio.  Mike thinks he knows everything.  He's a pompous ass who likes to bully callers he doesn't agree with.

He also bullys patrons who are in his way to the buffet table!

With him that's grounds for murder.  lol
