Baseball Hall Of Fame


It's funny listening to people argue about who should or shouldn't be inducted into the Baseball Hall Of Fame. Of course fans will lean one way or another when a specific name is mentioned. Consider the following group: Joe Torre, Gil Hodges, Maury Wills, Dick Allen, Jim Kaat, Tony Oliva, Al Oliver, Vada Pinson, Ron Santo and Luis Tiant. I am happy to say that I enjoyed watching all of these men play the game. If they were on your side you were relieved! If they were facing your team, you were scared. Yes scared - they could do some damage!
The Hall Of Fame Veterans Committee consisting of 64 living Hall Of Famers must vote from among these ten. Any candidate who receives 75 percent of the vote will earn election and be enshrined on July 26, 2009.
I say that they are all worthy. It's a shame that most of them will have to wait.
