The Hawk is in the Hall!

[fightonusc]

Andre Dawson is the only member of the 2010 class. Glad to see an RBIer added to the Hall of Fame. Blyleven missed out by five votes.

Congrats to Andre, but the BBWAA is still stupid.

[bonny]

Congrats to the Hawk.
The writers are a joke. (David Segui, Kevin Appier etc getting votes)

So, people really won't vote Mark McGwire in, huh?  Just because he said he wasn't here to talk about the past.  gay

Booya

[ryno]

wow. . .surprised he's the only one

[hort22]

bert fucked again...lol to some moron voting for sequi

[Stock]

Do they release who voted for who?

Dawson in the hall = fine.
Dawson in the hall in front of Blyleven/McGwire = stupid.

So ridiculous.

i heard some dumb schmuck on television say he didn't vote for anybody because he thinks no one deserves to get in on the first ballot. i don't understand that whole deal. if you're good enough to make it, aren't you good enough to make it on the first ballot?

Don't they already make them wait like 7 years or something.

Seems like a small man on a power trip to me

Thank you. It's not as if you have an opportunity in between this year and next to inflate your stats or anything like that.

I wish guys like that would have their voting rights stripped.

How the fuck is Raines only getting 30%?

[TβG]

How the fuck is Raines only getting 30%?

he played in montreal.... and he wasn't as dominating in real life as he was in RBI. 

he did have that cool "power and speed" or whatever card with dawson (83 fleer?)

[Barton]

I think Blyleven got screwed, Alomar got reamed, Larkin was shit on, and hell, even McGwire has a beef. But NO ONE got it in the ass worse than Tim Raines. HOF voting is a fucking sham.

[Brookensrules!]

Glad to see Dawson finally get in.  Not a big fan of Bert but I respect his stats, he should be in as well.  Many feels that Rock Raines suffered when Dawson left Montreal as Dawson was a mentor.
