EG>I thought that he'd have to hang on and fight like Santo but now, he won't
EG>even have that chance. I'm not even a Yankees fan and I can see the

whose

EG>and Nettles isn't worthy of future consideration. The HOF is a joke -- no, 
it's
EG>a travesty. It's OUR HOF and we deserve the right to honor OUR legends. 
NOW,
EG>more than ever, it's time that the HOF takes away their voting rights and 
give

What about Ron Guidry? His stats are almost the same as Don Drysdale. He
was a dominant picture but he doesn't have a shot to get in.
