Re: My Hall of Fame Ballot

mondogarage,
If the BBWAA gave you a ballot, and you voted for players based on who you thought the other voters would be voting for, you'd be a goddamn moron.
If you really think Jim Rice is a better player than Tim Raines, I don't know what to say. Rice was not a better overall player, no matter how you look at it. Raines had better longevity and a better peak.

I listed the two players on the ballot whom I believe deserve induction, plain and simple. I don't equate having a few average to slightly better than average seasons after age 33 to be a HOF qualification.
If you think my posts indicate my HOF ballot would be based solely on what others' ballots, you'd be a goddamn moron.
If I'm objectively wrong about Rice being a better player, that's okay, it's a ballot, not a Sagarin ranking, and you'd be a goddamn moron as it pertains to the concept of a ballot in the first place.
