yall dont wanna list to Colin Cowherd right now, he was saying that the only reason Biggio got his number was because he played for so long. He said that he was never great, and he was just a good player for a long period. He said when your own team doesn't want you to lead off that says something...I tweeted him the facts but i was just shocked..of course he said Curt Schilling was in over Biggio though smh
Collin Cowherd proved to me long ago he was an idiot, I don't put much stock into what he says about most things. While not as bad, he is in the same ilk as Skip Bayless, where he just says some things to be controversial.
This discussion on MLB Network is downright laughable. #1, if most of you weren't doing it, and you were being robbed by those who were, why didn't you do something about it. #2, every person on these panels knew. They knew. They didn't do anything about it. #3, I like how certain players are perceived as clean, while others are perceived to be dirty.

We should spend the next 20 minutes until the announcement coming with with other words that describe these...ummm...people. Jacka**es
JIM BOWDEN@JimBowdenESPNxm Based on the votes that have been made public it looks like either Craig Biggio or no one for 2013 class...but we'll know for sure in 18 min
The blank-ballot voters need to have their voting priveliges revoked, and then, they need to be thrown into a pit
And next year with Glavine, Maddox, Kent, and Frank Thomas it could pose even more problems with getting votes, especially for Bags
