The biggest crime was that Bert Blyleven lost votes this time around. In the last go 'round he had 277. This time? 260.

He was more than deserving.

Put McGwire in, this is ridiculous. And while they're at it put in Rose too. The HOF is basically a sham if they don't even include the all-time record holder for hits in the sport, regardless of how you feel about him personally.

Cansucko willfully did his roids along with everybody else.

He is a dishonorable, amoral, despicable, back-stabbing piece of shit. Cheating sucks, but betraying ones friends is far worse in my book.

At least McGwire keeps his mouth shut and hides from the media.

My opinion is that they're both cheaters and liars. Canseco decided to try to profit from their cheating and lying which I suppose drags him a little deeper into that cesspool. As to baseball talent, if I could have either player in his prime on my team, I'd want Canseco.

The shame of this, as someone mentioned earlier, is that McGwire's non-election gets more attention than the election of Ripken and Gwynn. Those guys were class acts, the types of athletes we would like them all to be.

All of those jokes can suck it IMO, Bonds, McGuire, Sosa, all of'em.

I hope the NBA does not start looking to deep into the 80's and 90's players?????

I was watching Cold Pizza this morning, I don't know why, and there was a woman HOF voter who is from Oakland. And she said, I kid you not, that McGwire did not deserve to get in regardless of steroids. My jaw about hit the floor. I can't believe we have such people voting for the Hall.
