    You wanna talk Shoeless Joe?

    He's got a much better case.

    What are your thoughts on the BR HOF monitors and/or the comparable players?

    I was actually slightly surprised where they had him.

    And Greg Maddux, and Smoltz, and Glavine.

    Pitchers love steroids too, ya know?

    Pretty sure their algorithm never saw his entire career. ;)

    Just looked: I'm not sure that any of those guys belong in the HOF: Hersheiser/Brown/Greinke/etc

    Scherzer does.

    See that’s the thing, exactly. You don’t understand the other side. I completely understand your side. A bunch of idiotic ****ing rubes lapping up the bile of egomaniac titty baby billionaires. The time for civility has passed, your side destroyed that path. **** you, you are a piece of ****.

    Greinke is expected to get in by the majority of people who have a say in this matter (whether they've earned that say or not).... at that point, Schilling will have even more of a case.

    But being a dick doesnt help.

    I do think the "very good" category is more the Pettite, Oswalt, Saberhagen, Weaver, Lee types.

    Then again, Mussina and Sabathia got in.... and I didn't think they were of the same HOF caliber either.

    Shouldn't have. He's with Grienke and Schilling and Mike Scott and JR Richard and David Cone and Brett Saberhaghen and many, many others.

    I'm a tad bit more hardass with the Baseball HOF than some are, it's cool.

    This is the most depressing thing I’ll read today.

    But keep your politics out of here. I've been banned elsewhere for simply responding to provocative posts like this one.

    i understand that reading comprehension is an advanced skill, but the whole point of my post was to leave politics out.

    Bottom line is I want to stick around to discuss baseball and football. And I have moments where I can be provoked. Particularly if the discussion resembles a different forum which I go to for such discussions.

    4 boys and one girl. And they'd save your life no matter how much they disagreed with your politics.

    Apple must’ve fallen far from the tree then, that’s great. Because their dad is a shitbird rube who bought into the stupidest political movement in history that has destroyed civility and rule of law and is rapidly destroying the country. **** you, you are a piece of ****.

    You are absolutely right. I actually thought I was posting in the political thread. My bad.
