If anyone has an Applejack from the recent McDonald's promotion you'd be willing to trade, you will be well rewarded.

Punk Rock Paint is making some Nifty business cards (Nifty with a capitol IFT)

Hall of Stupidity

Pat Gillick is in the Hall of Fame, Marvin Miller is not.

The Hall of Fame really doesn't mean anything anymore. Not after this.

Back scratchin'...

Wasn't he called "Stand Pat" for a while?

WTF!!!!!!!!!!!!

I really thought Miller would get in. He is a very important figure in baseball history and needs to be in the HOF.

Just like Ed Sabol is not in the PFHOF. He needs to go in, this year.

Of course it's the hall of stupidity--how long did they take to elect Buck O'Neil? Apparently when it goes to the VC they prefer you to be dead before they even think about it.
And what's the deal with Miller and Steinbrenner? Miller's a no-brainer, and as much as I hate Steinbrenner, he's still a HOF owner. Dumbasses...

THEY NEVER DID ELECT BUCK O'NEIL.

They gave him a statue and an award named after him.

Buck O'Neil is not a Hall of Famer.

Which is fine with me because the Hall of Fame is now completely irrelevant as far as I'm concerned.

Miller is 93 years old. He does not have time to wait around another three years to be honored. Ron Santo's lesson didn't sink in to anyone on that 16 man Veteran's committee and they should all be shamed today, every one. I don't care if 11 people voted for him, he needed 12 votes to get in and all 16 of those voters failed miserably today.

Every one of those voters should all be ashamed of themselves. They have permanently damaged the credibility and prestige of the entire Hall of Fames by their actions today and they should all regret their actions for the rest of their lives.
