Pete Rose, 'Shoeless' Joe Jackson among players reinstated by MLB

That leaves 1-4 who weren’t. Need hard evidence on these players and that’s not happening.
Of course and even the evidence itself is sketchy. Sosa and McGwire never failed official tests and Bonds failed tests were through Balco and not MLB. All fans can do with most guys is assume or defend. I believe MLB knew without question which guys to go after and which to leave alone. How else does Bonds go undetected, but random AAAA scrubs who are just trying to hang on get nabbed?
 
That doesn’t make any sense as an argument.

Something is either against the rules or it’s not. There is a very clear distinction and I am doing the opposite of trying to erase it.
If it's not enforced and word is out it won't be enforced, is it a rule? I bet you break the rules several times a day when you're the only one at a stop sign. I'm sure you rarely complete a "complete cessation of movement" unless you have to. Why don't you turn in your drivers license voluntarily? After all, rules are rules and I'm sure you deserve more than enough points on your license to lose it.
 
Disagree, he took the money and did nothing. He was in on it. Guilty.
Jackson was illiterate but that didn't make him a mindless moron who was tricked into being part of the fix without knowing what was going on. He has been displayed basically as Lenny from Of Mice and Men for at least the last six decades, but that is a bit of a misrepresentation. He went so far as to say to Ty Cobb many years afterwards "I screwed up, I was stupid". Which was pretty much an admission of guilt.
