Your 2020 Baseball Hall of Fame Ballot

Looks like Schilling will make it in by year ten. Bonds and Clemens gained votes this year (about 1.5%) but two years left and still hovering around 60%. Starting to really doubt they get in which is a sham.

the sham was injecting.

You’re a moron, frank.

Bonds should be in the HOF.

Make him wait, fine. He’s not Sammy fvcking Sosa.  Sosa was a fvcking minor leaguer without the juice.  Bonds was a HOFr w/o the juice, the juice just made him a GOD at the plate.

Bonds was a HOFer even before the roids. Same goes for Clemens. Not Bonds fault writers are bunch of pussies who can’t handle a player who never liked them. The HOF has become a popularity contest for bitches. Pete Rose not being in tells you all you need to know. These were players that were above and beyond better than all the other juicers. 

The Astros players weren’t penalized, only the org was, which is bullshit.

You are of course correct and so is Justin, on this topic. One person in the next 50 years MIGHT be able to do what Clemens did, same with Bonds.

i'm not going to cave on the steroid cheaters. also, if in the future y'all want to hold the astro players liable for their cheating, then keep them out of the hall also.

Pete Rose has nothing to do with popularity. 

[Justin NoCal]

He’s not exactly the media’s sweetheart

Congrats ,Derek Jeter and Larry Walker,third Canadian lad to be inducted after Ferguson Jenkins and Bob Elliott into the Sportswriters' Wing of the Hall Of Fame !!!! (What moron thought Jeter doesn't belong in Cooperstown ? ; this" genius" kept Jeter from being the second unanimous inductee after Jeter's longtime teammate ,Yankees' non-pareil closer Mariano Rivera !!!!)

He is not eligible so his popularity with the press has no bearing on the Hall.

Unless you are saying if he was more popular he wouldn't have been banned for this long then may impact things.  However I would have said when he was banned he was fairly popular.  Who didn't like Charlie Hustle.

once again, pete fvcked up. obviously he was 1 of the greatest players ever.

on a side note, he wasn't always an asshole as some people say. as a kid growing up in florida and attending many spring training games i always trolled for autographs. one day in orlando the reds were in town playing the twins. so, i hung on the fence always trying to get one or another player to sign my program. rose was about 10 feet away talking with another player and i waved at him. he came over and signed my program. man, i was stoked. it was in the mid 70s.

btw, pooldoc has that program now, harrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.
