It's sad that Hall of Fame voting has become such an annual soapbox event. What a joke.

They didn't even let Biggio in...

Well, baseball is not even a sport to begin with, so the HOF voting may as well be a joke

[Reck]

They may as well do away with the Hall of Fame.

Everyone has juiced at some point in their career, therefore tainted and their shot at the HoF gone.

:lol do you need some help with the definition of sport son

That takes days to play. I'm ok with the 50 and 20 overs. Adapting to the times.

I understand the snub on Big Mac, Bonds, Sammy Sosa…But thought Mike Piazza deserved it…Best hitting catcher in baseball…

Gossage ... “You don’t have the best three or four years of your career at age 41, 42 and 43. You don’t get better the older you get. It just doesn’t happen".

Apparently the writers were innocent and oblivious when they were voting for Bonds for MVP 7 times and Clemens for Cy Young 5 times.

lol fake outrage

Yep, and think of all the players in the HOF who cheated in their own way back in the day. Pitchers who doctored baseballs, etc.

Exactly.
Gaylord Perry with his putting Vaseline on baseball.
Turd gets voted into the Hall by the writers.

Not to mention that both were great before they juiced

[JMarkJohns]

Clemens has 7 Cy Youngs.

[resistanze]

Clemens has 7 Cy Youngs.

Even funnier, I just took a stab knowing he had the most in MLB history.
So a 7-time MVP and 7-time Cy Young winner was apparently pulling the wool over these sportswriters' eyes, well into their 40s.

Hell, nobody had a clue when Brady fucking Anderson was hitting 50 home runs in a season? GMAFB.

[JMarkJohns]

I think Clemens won 3 Cy's since 1998, and Bonds 4 MVPs.

I guess writers' shit smells good enough to turn their nose up at a 4-time Cy winner pre-link, and 3-time MVP pre-link.

[resistanze]

Yeah, as symple19 said too they were first ballot HOFs easily before the 2000s.

I don't want to hear their sanctimonious garbage when the same sportswriters were fapping to the McGwire/Sosa HR chase. Even after there were allegations back then especially for McGwire.

[JMarkJohns]

What sucks more is the sanctimonious guilt by association that kept someone like Biggio out, who never had a single link to steroids. This is just lazy and vendetta-laden "justice" with no true principles or morality.
