#500

Tonight Albert Pujols hit 2 HRs including HR #500 The 26th player to reach that milestone.

Hall of fame?

Vic he was under suspicion but I don't think he ever failed a test.

...neither did Bonds.

Good point.

I don't think he's dirty... just like I hold firm to the view that Griffey Jr. wasn't dirty

I will say Pujols's numbers have always been pretty consistent from day one. Griffey Jr. had one of the greatest swings I've ever seen. Just never healthy for most of the last ten years of his career. God knows what numbers he would've ended up with if his body held up.

Or maybe there's a reason his body DIDN'T hold up.

Does anyone remember speculation of Albert using HGH, during the first World Baseball Classic?

Although one can't live or die with pure speculation, and HGH is tested for in the WBC, much like the Olympic Athletes. Yet, I don't recall any fellow players hinting that Albert was dirty. Usually it is a BB peer, who rats out another.

I'd have to say, Albert will be a Hall of Famer, provided his past stays clean. After all, he would of garnered quit a 5 MVP awards, in lieu of his 3 MVP awards, had a tainted dirty roid abuser-Balco Barry- of not been awarded those MVP's

Oh, Lance....wait he said he didn't do anything, so he must be telling the truth eh? NOT, LMAO.

What a National embarrasment. I wonder if Lance is filling UPS trucks with parcels these days. He will need some extra testosterone to continue lifting those packages when he's 70 years old, his new found career....HooYah..!!

They weren't on the links I saw, but I still think neither would be a starter at their positions...

That's easy... Joyner wasn't a head case with balls so Joyner can be the ball boy & knobby the bat boy..
