According to him, that is. I think he's a strong deserving candidate but to think it's because he's Republican is ridiculous. I'm sure there's a republican or two in the hall. Right.

    I thought Mussina was a no brainer. Petitte, not so much. But Schilling will eventually get in. The bloody sock playoff win locked it up for him.

    Pettitte just in the playoffs alone deserves it. Guy was a BEAST. A BEAST

    I saw him pitch at Fenway in September 1999 after a summer in Nantucket.he was simply awesome and HE knew he was borderline cockey. He just knew no one was going to beat him. He is certainly a HOFmer in my book Curt can't touch him, not even close.

    Either because he is an asshole or a republican. He should be in. As should Tim Raines

    Baseball HOF voters are a bag of dicks.

    I hope you want Bonds in too....because Raines snorted coke during games (which I actually have no problem with!) and you could argue that's more disrespectful of the game than taking a little HGH.

    I agree with Olbermann. They should just close the HOF and start over.

    Who gives a rats ass about respecting the game? Coke isn't a PED. I'd argue that PEDs are worse for the game than bumping a couple lines.

    Without question, Bonds should be in.

    Yes, but it doesn't help at all with hand eye coordination the way HGH would. If fact, it hinders it.

    I heard he got the nickname rock from the Crack rock he kept in his pockets during a game. Any truth to that?

    Agreed. Your premise about the 200 win thing, though is incorrect.

    How does HGH help with hand-eye coordination? It helps your body recover faster. Its normally given to children that are not growing and to help people age slower when prescribed in a legal manner. In fact I would say coke is much more a PED for in game purposes than HGH. All the players love adderall and stimulants now as not only does it help them get up for the grueling schedule but helps them process these 100 mph pitches faster as their minds are much more focused. Personally I say we stop pretending this is still purely sports and realize by paying these guys millions of dollars we turned them more into entertainers and let them do whatever they want. Players will always looks for an advantage with the amount of money that can be made now.

    I don't know that he ever really suggested how. Just why. He made some valid points, though.
