Re: Hof?????

Bernie has better stats then guy's like Larry Doby in AVG. RBI. and HR, Tony Gwynn RBI. and HR, he best Paul Molitor in HR and is very close in RBI and AVG. Kirby Puckett in HR. and RBI Ozzie Smith in all 3 (ozzie did get in because of his glove) and pretty similar number to Robin Yount just to name a few not to mention in less games then most of these guys.

I can do that too. I can build a player with...

Better batting average than Rob Deer
More home runs than Duane Kuiper
Fewer strikeouts than Bobby Bonds
Higher OBP than Bill Bergen
Better fielding percentage than Jose Offerman
Better looking than Don Mossi
Taller than Eddie Gaedel
Nicer than Barry Bonds

I'll buy all of this but not the part about Mossi.....

Re: Hof?????

Haha, Don Mossi is a swell guy. We've written back and fourth for years.

I'll make this quick with the names some of you listed.

Bernie Williams is not a HOF
Vlad G.--- Not a HOF'er, as of yet.
Chipper Jones-- Love the guy, but may need just a tid bit more to get in, but he probably will.
Posada--Needs more but I think he will stay consistent and has a strong chance.
Ortiz--- Great power guy, but with his injuries/age/and the fact that he doesnt play defense, just DH, he has no chance
Mussina---- A no go for me
Smoltz--- I think he will only get in because he's a fan favorite.

And to answer ESPN's poll question whether Curt Schilling is a HOF'er or not(which 65% said he was) He is NOT a HOF'er. Good pitcher, but not a HOF'er.

R. Alomar, Biggio, Vizquel(close) and Piazza are HOF'ers

It reminds me of something Jeff Foxworthy said.

"Women think they have this system where they can tell how well endowed a man is. They'll think 'Oh, if he's got big hands', or 'he's got big ears' or 'he's got a big nose'. He'd better be packing, because that's one hell of a goofy looking dude!"
