Default HOF ballot is out

but I am sure Lee is flattered since he wishes he had half the brain, brawn and looks that I have

I really, really hate people that think being voted in the first time they are on the ballot is some sort of honor. You are either deservig of of being voted in or you aren't. The whole process is screwy. They should be voted on once and that's it. You don't get voted in your first time on the ballot, too bad.

Dawson I am torn on. He is certainly a boarderline candidate and was one of the best all around players before his knees crumbled.

Murphy was overrated during his playing day and should not have won the 1982 MVP. Al Oliver should have.

Katt is one of my favorites, but without that magical 300 wins it will be almost impossible for him to get in even though he was just as good or better than Sutton and Neikro.

Quiz was on the ballot a few years ago but did not get the minimum 5% of the vote needed to remain on the ballot.
