looks like the top 3 will get in, assuming they may get a higher percentage of votes from those who arent willing to admit they voted for him

If Vizquel did backflips on the field, would he be in the HOF now?

"shy voters"? LOL Honestly, looking at this list they should all get in. The steroid players are crowding the field.

No. those are not all the ballots counted. that's just a tracker. usually when the real votes get counted they're like 5-7% points less than the tracker. So they are definitely not getting in if on the tracker they're below 75%

that's why schilling is not getting in either.

if you had kept my thread and didnt start a new one you would have read that.

So the announcement is now at 3pm EST. Usually it's around 6pm EST.

So when they move it up in the day it pretty much means nobody will get in. If they know someone will be getting in, they do it during night time so they have the rest of the show to talk w/ the inductees for the rest of the night.

The Hall of Fame vote is so stupid. Nightengale voted for LaTroy Hawkins because he liked Hal McRae. And character or something.

Half these voters are arrogant fucking assholes and the other half are clueless about baseball. This has gone on forever. they really need to come up with a new system that reflects the current day like the NFL/NBA does.

Like i posted those are trackers, not the real votes. real votes will be 5-7% less than the tracker. so they wont be getting in.

this is the baseball HOF, not the shit NFL HOF where they let anyone in.

One the one hand, who the fuck cares about the HOF. Voting for it isn't some sacred thing. On the other hand, how do you not strip Nightengale of his vote for voting for Hawkins? If the voters don't give a fuck about the process they should probably be replaced with voters who do.

Especially when you contrast with this. The weight of history. Nightengale the way he does it is all fucked up. Guys don't get their fingers pricked. There is no sword or gun on the table.

Good thread topic, Your top 5 disappointing Cubs/Sox moves. Or should we hijack this one?

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.
