Power Alley

In this video Hank Aaron gives his views on Pete Rose and steroid users in the Hall of Fame while being on Sirius XM radio with Jim Duquette and Seth Everett. Hank thinks that what Pete did what was wrong by betting on his team. Then he says he would want to see Pete in the Hall of Fame as far as his performance on the field without cheating. As far as the steroid issue he said if they are guilty of using steroids they should have an asterisk by their record. He says "I just don't believe that no one, I don't believe anyone can go out there and play the game the way it's supposed to be played and hit 75 or 70 home runs, I just don't believe it"(Duquette, Everett).

I completely agree with Hank Aaron in this video. I also think that cheaters like Pete Rose should be in the Hall of Fame even though what he did was wrong, his cheating did not make him a better player because he was betting on games. His performance on the field though should be enough to get him in to the Hall of Fame. As far a steroids go I don't think they should have an asterisk by their records, I just think they should not be in the Hall of Fame at all. I agree with his quote that it is not possible for a player to hit that many home runs without some sort of help because the only ones who have done it are those accused of doing steroids.
