    I'm looking forward to the hack of Fanduel and similar sites and the outing of players in all sports playing these games.

    As well as every two-bit local dog catcher, just like when Ashley Madison was hacked.

    This is true. It is tough to get in, as we can see by the fact that only two guys got in this year. But I still think the standard for ballots are too low. Even as a lifelong Mets fan, it would take a hell of a lot of convincing to get me to vote for guys like Jeff Kent or Billy Wagner for the Hall of Fame. Very good players? Yes. Best of the best? Not in my eyes.

    At least he didn't call her a skank or a clam.

    You realize that all these people are self reporting their ballots. The actual ballots aren't released.

    It's possible someone who already revealed his "ballot" actually lied about it.

    This is always funny to me. I probably am 5-9, 160 pounds. What precisely kind of woman do you think I'd be interested in? It's not some insult against "real women" that a little guy might have an eye for size-appropriate women. So e guys here are tipping the growth chart and the scale. Likewise, I'm not expecting that they would be chasing Hayden Panettiere around.

    The difference? You don't see me insulting Christina Hendricks.

    In addition to being idiots, the non-Griffey voters are also cowards. If you are going to do something that controversial, put your name on it.
