When you can't get it right, get out

All right you stupid idiots. Yes you, you dumbass voters for the Baseball Hall of Fame. I dare you to tell me how you didn't vote for Ron Santo. C'mon, I'm listening. Anything? You got anything? Isn't the Hall of Fame supposed to be about having a place to go see all of the greatest participants in your selected frame of emphasis? Leaving Santo out is like leaving Aerosmith out of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. They are not The Beatles, but they are great in their own right and deserve to be there. Same with Santo. He is like what the second or third greatest third baseman ever? Shouldn't the Hall of Fame include the top 5 or 10 at each position? What are you morons going to do for an encore keep out Buck O'Neill? Oh wait..............

Since you clearly can't get your act together about whom you deem worthy of entrance, let me give you a little hint. You're God complex is tiring. You keep out people, just because they didn't kiss the media's ass.

And Bud, don't think that I'm not pissed at you either. You are gonna get some scorn too. You are the freakin' commissioner. Don't give me "they are their own entity." Bullshit. What is your title again? Oh yeah. Commissioner of MAJOR LEAGUE BASEBALL. What are we talking about here? THE MAJOR LEAGUE BASEBALL HALL OF FAME. Sounds like it falls under your jurisdiction to me. If the office of the commissioner can use his power to keep out Pete Rose, then it can use it's power to put in Santo, O'Neill and all the others that belong in.

Hall of Fame voters need to quit. Turn in your ballots and let someone else take a whack at it.
