If some writer wants to throw away a vote to bring attention to somebody or make a statement that’s fine. We’re talking about a group that has only unanimously voted one guy in, what’s one vote the other way.

what a lame excuse by Nightengale. He knows he fucked up but doesn't want to admit it. grasping for straws right there.

it's like FavreFan right now over in the Aaron Rodgers thread. :lol:

A vote for Hawkins violates pretty much any standard that the writers have. You can either vote on merit or fame (after all, it is the Hall of FAME, not the Hall of GREAT, even though most people, including myself, treat it that way). Hawkins is neither.

While I don't really care about Hawkins, I've gotten to the point where I'm hoping that they have voted all of the juicers in who had distinguished careers pre needle. I'd vastly prefer a discussion on clean and long time merits.

LaTroy Hawkins is a top 5 disappointment for me as a Cub fan I think.

LaTroy Walkins is a top 5 nickname all time however

steroid guys are not getting anywhere close


Bonds and Clemens are 2-3 percent away. LOL


I hope you take this as a learning experience Blackhawksfan. Bonds/Clemens were not even close. 61 percent.
