Why would the nominees be limited to living persons? That criterion eliminates worthy candidates. I would think that the earliest card researchers and cataloguers would have priority. The HOF did the same thing with 19th century players. Many of the pioneers of the game were not seriously researched and considered, while more "modern" candidates were elected. I just believe the pioneers should be considered first or they run the risk of being pushed aside and forgotten. The HOF doesn't like dead inductees. It makes for a smaller party. Reference the 2013 election. I realize we may be talking apples and oranges here, however I am partial to taking care of the pioneers first. Also, I realize this is a SABR project, not a HOF award. My previous post expressed my dissatisfaction with the HOF. Sometimes I need to vent.
