Forum rules


Posting:

* Individual players should be in their own thread, with the full name of the player and position(s) in the title. Don't add superlatives or any other shout outs to it... we will see your guys...
* If you post a team or a set of players, add players by editing your starting post so they're all in the same post. A bump to announce the edit is appropriate.
* Posting images are fine, provided they are small in dimension and data. 800x600 and ~50Kb should be the biggest you can post inline (using the [IMG] tag), anything larger, post a link or a clickable thumbnail instead.
* If you have wiki rights, add your player(s) and team(s) there as well!

Well Mrliamcarr did the hall of famers, I'm thinking of doing a hall of shamers team. These are not only players that have been on the brink of hall of fame ballots and fell short due to "stat enhancing" medicine(s), but may have bought shame upon baseball.

Some players that come to mind:

Lenny Dykstra
Barry Bonds??
Roger Clemens?
Mark McGwire
Jose Canseco

These are examples, but I'm hoping to put together enough to fill all positonal and a pitching rotation and bullpen. I may need some help in identifying those suitable for the team (must have been linked to 'roids and/or have a criminal record or have done very bad things to taint their baseball name).

Hensely was suspended for 50 games for failing a test.

Whoa, whoa, whoa. Not McGwire. He used something that was legal at the time. Bonds did something illegal.

Mark McGwire was still taking steroids, legal or not.

LF-Bonds

Canseco will double as team doctor :D need a guy who is competent with injections
Dykstra's links with Charlie Sheen will aid in sponsorship for both medical supplies and travel

You could probably make two separate teams - Juicers and Base Heads.
The juicers would be easy to do, and they would be really freaking good. The base heads would be headlined by Gooden and Strawberry, but there were dozens of those guys in the late 70's/80's. Dock Ellis reportedly threw a no-hitter on LSD.
