HOF Ballot Released

[msgkings322]

This dude’s first ever HOF ballot leaves a lot to be desired.

Clemens yes Bonds no = he needs to have his vote revoked. That's full retard.

 

[Calm]

So why does he have a vote? Does he even cover beisbol?

I just have a serious issue with anyone who does not vote the same way for Bonds and Clemens. If you ignore the roads arguement, they are both absolute no-brainers, who are all-time elites, even beyond the HOF. If you exclude the roiders, fine, but then you can’t have Sosa or Manny in either.

His ballot reeks of some personal vendetta.

You know as much as I do. I agree, it’s a crap ballot. Doesn’t seem to follow any sort of logic.

McGriff, Sosa and Manny are way more egregious. It's like he's taking a stand against one player for using roids, but not any of the other ones.

Won't vote for Jones because of tweets or Bonds because of character reasons, but votes for Clemens.








This is why the wrong people are voting for the HOF.

i understand someone not voting for Bonds. I understand someone not voting for Clemens.

But how in the world could anyone not vote the same way for both of them?

I don’t need voters to defend their votes, but I do want them to explain them.

Won't vote for Jones because of tweets? What did he tweet?

 

[Cedrique]

This dude’s first ever HOF ballot leaves a lot to be desired.

Wow. WTF was he thinking? Either include Bonds and Clemens or leave off Manny freaking Ramirez. A habitual rule-breaker in a time when MLB was trying to clean up it's image. The guy made 206 million dollars playing baseball, cheating as much as he could. I think he should be fine with not being inducted into the hall of fame.

 

[Cedrique]

Wait, forget about that last comment. I just remembered that it was just Manny being Manny

He threw out a couple years back that Sandy Hook was a hoax. Stupid of him, but not enough to keep him out.

Somehow I missed that. But yeah, it's not called the Hall of Intelligence so I don't think that should have anything to do with how people vote.

Wheres Roids McInjector?

Finally, a competent ballot.

Again, I don’t agree with all his votes, but there is consistency and no brain-Dead votes.

Bravo.

 

[Win TWINS!!!]

Will Chipper Jone's c@ck fit on ONE plaque?

No worries. It's been missing ever since @Chewbaccer put it in his mouth.

not 100% consistency though... Sosa should have been in instead of McGriff...

If you have Bonds in for steroids, and then you have Thome in, I don't see how you can NOT have Sosa....

and McGriff is a little out of the box... People just liked him, and he has one of the best nicknames in sports history...

this was discussed before, Thome was better than Sosa.

7 ballots in to the tracker and Clemens, Vlad, Hoffman, Thome, and Vizquel are 100%. 2 people voted for Clemens and not Bonds.

Scott Rolen has 1 vote, Johan Santana has 0.

 

[MilkSpiller22]

didn't say he wasn't... But IMO, if you have Thome and Bonds you must have sosa... especially if you are going to give a spot to McGriff...

If you think Thome is better than Sosa, then why would you have to have both in? What if your line of what is and what isn't a HOFer is slightly below Thome and ahead of Sosa? Is that not logical?
