Needed an RBI thread
Too many losses imo
HOF = Hall of Farts.
Oof.
I'll allow it
Hall of hotFoots
Cy Young had 50+ more losses than Blyleven, then again, Cy won 200+ more games.
Cy Young debuted 80+ years before Blyleven, then again, Cy was born 80+ years before.
So be it.
Blyleven deserves to be in. He's of the same ilk as Perry, Niekro, Sutton. Never the best, but really good for a long time.

I would take Blyleven over any of those guys.
Anything with Hall Of Fame next to it is a piece of crap. Take the Rock " N " Rock HOF. They have all these shitty bands in, but bands like Deep Purple are not in and then you have Black Sabbath & AC/DC wait 20 years before they get in... Kinda weak in my opinion.
Probably because Deep Purple fucking sucks.

I have no clue if you're serious, but Deep Purple is a Rock "N" Roll band.
yeah, but theyre not a Rock N Rock band
Heavy Metal/Hard Rock you're correct.
thats beside the point
Whitesnake > Deep Purple
Ian Gillan > David Coverdale
no
Here I Go Again is all I think about when Coverdale is mentioned. I don't enjoy anything he did with Deep Purple. He was okay in Whitesnake, but I liked him more when he worked with Jimmy Page on a Led Zeppelin album without Robert Plant.
Armon Gilliam > Ian Gillan
The Hammer

I approve of this post....
Pop quiz. What Led Zeppelin songs does this sound like? Total rip off in my opinion.

Led Zeppelin are gay...especially the dead one.

So overrated.
i probably change the station 75% of the time led zeppelin comes on the radio
I'd rather listen to any Nickelback or Creed song than anything Led Zeppelin has ever produced.
youve lost me
Nickelback and Creed:
a.) repetitive
b.) unoriginal
c.) boring and predictable
d.) proof that you don't need talent in order to become famous because the majority of people like anything that is simple and mindless, as long as it is catchy
(ANSWER: All of the above)
Still better than Led Zeppelin.
None of them would have been bad if they just stopped after 3-4 songs.
not true, nickelback and creed never suceeded with any songs. but led zeppelin has the 3-4 good songs

Someone was buying all those shitty albums.
I can only conclude that they were buying them for 1 or 2 songs.
I'm not a hardcore Led Zeppelin fan, but to me that's a good band. Listen to Led Zeppelin IV. The whole album is great.

No.
Have you ever listened to any of the songs on the album?
Yes.
Fair enough... I figure everyone liked Led Zeppelin. You're the 1st one to ever say they disliked Led Zeppelin. Quite shocking I will admit.
I take that back you never said you dislike them. You said overrated. Never heard that before.
I both dislike them and find them to be overrated.
Pretty sure John Paul Jones is more proud of Them Crooked Vultures than he is of Led Zeppelin.

I'm with Attezz on this one. I like some Zeppelin when I was in Grade 6, but I grew out of it.
But Rush...now there's some talent

We finally agree on something. Rush have some great songs.
Rush is good, but not in the same class as Zeppelin.

Agreed. Rush are in a higher class.
Not even close. Led Zeppelin is on a different planet of greatness which Rush will never be. They are a good band and that's it. No one cares about Rush. Only people who give a crap about Rush are people in Canada. Shit not even Canadians like to admit they like Rush.

Except for everything you said, you're right.
Rush have had more hit songs than Led Zeppelin in the last 30 years. FACT!

That's true.. Here is another truth. It has been over 30 years since Rush put out a good record. Last being Moving Pictures. Go figure both bands have not done anything for last 30 years. Only thing Zep has not been a band for over 30 years.
Zep not being a band for over 30 years strikes me as the only good thing they've ever done.

The fact that you don't think Signals was a good album makes all your past and future opinions invalid.
The fact that you don't think Signals is a good album makes all your past and future opinions invalid. I would say that album has 3 decent songs. Overall that album is junk. To me that was the decline. Next thing your going tell me Roll the Bones is a good album.
Bones is better than anything Zeppelin has done in the last 30 years. Actually, the best thing Zeppelin did in the 80's was having 25% less members who were still breathing.
If Led Zeppelin were the group that fucked that red headed groupie with a fish, that's pretty much the only worthwhile thing they've done.
I don't believe you guys dislike Zep for the record.
They're fucking terrible.
No joke, the last month or so whenever they come on the radio I fire up a Right Said Fred song on youtube.
Same with most Pink Floyd and whenever November Rain (the GnR version) comes on.
You had me there I'll admit. I mean come on who does not like Zeppelin? Insane!
This is getting awkward.
I officially bow out.
There is absolutely no way you dislike Led Zeppelin. Not possible...

I don't dislike Led Zeppelin, but Robert Plant is not a good lead singer and I can understand people not liking it.
i think hes a great singer, but most of their songs are just meh

Yeah, the people that don't like Zeppelin.
Everyone has different taste for music. Oh well not everyone likes Led Zep. Do you like the Beatles?

The "Post Nice Things About Darky" thread.
Bert's number is also being retired by the Twins this year.
By the way Bert should not be in HOF..
He was a good pitcher, but not great.
U r dum
Blyleven is still not HOF material.
Lets put it this way. My ball sack is more worthy than Blyleven...
Andy Pettitte anyone?
Was never as good as Bert Blyleven
Pretty sure that the only "performance enhancer" that Bertus was ever on was a six-pack of Coors.
