Based on how many years it will take after they are eligible, who will go into the Hall first? Bonds, Big Mac or Clemens?...or none of the above.

This is an interesting question, one I can't see. Who knows how the writers will handle Bonds or Clemens. If Jim Rice has a knock againt him for his personality, imagine Bonds.

I'll wait until I see how Clemens handles himself in Congress. If he goes the way of McGwire (he'd be a fool to), then we all know what will happen.

I say it will be Clemens just becasue he will be eligible before Bonds. I think they both get in.

Great question. So hard to know what the writers are thinking... I'm going to go with Bonds because when the smoke clears, it's still all about the numbers. So he gets in first thanks to the home run record, then Clemens (unless proof that he used gets found), then McGwire.

As you said, it is all about the numbers. Clemens will be eligible first if he stays retired this year and Bonds plays like he wants. I think Clemens will find a way to clean up his name enough to get in, and how can the HR leader not get in. If they keep him out, it will be like baseball actually admitting they think he is guilty.

McGwire gets in first of these guys if Clemens can't shake these charges. But they all get in eventually.

I agree...Big Mac will be first, he appears to be the cleanist thus far.

I don't think any will, but if its any of them it will Clemens or Mac

With Bonds' legal troubles, I'd lean towards Clemens. But that could change.
