    Nah. The crap the voters do is all legitimate stuff. Just ask Dick.

    Close, but that's not how I put it. Hope you do a better job quoting people when you are working. (We do still have some actual working journalists left around here, right?)

    You hadn't been in the discussion for a few posts, so it hadn't been necessary.

    So, guys, is that what we want? Troll each other until this thing gets locked? Or do we want to discuss Hall of Fame voting?

    (My apologies for the back-to-back-to-back-to-back-to-back posts to those who weren't posting like complete jackasses. Under the circumstances, it seemed appropriate. Hopefully, the mods will just delete all the bullshit and give this thread another chance.)

    The only thing that will save this thread is you being taken out curbside, like the sack of trash you are.
    Absent that, if we got you on some decent medication you might be less of a public menace here.
    Might.

    Speaking of posting like jackasses. First rule about the button. Don't talk about the button!

    It's ok, Joe. We know you just want to brag about (allegedly) having a vote, but you don't have the courage to stand by your choices even on an anonymous message board.

    So, does Craig Biggio get in the HOF or what?
