Who cares?

I'd rather know which umpires are on vacation and when.

SDS,
Please explain your "not yet" vote. Either someone is good enough to get in the Hall or not. Will the stats get better over time? I am not trying to stir up some $h!t, I am truly curious how you feel.

• Dave Parker -Way overdue

I could not possibly agree less. Parker was one who surely had all the tools, but he snorted them away as he snorted his coke. Parker was one of those who never came anywhere near being the player he should have been, let alone the player he was capable of being.

Not yet, as in "not at this time." There are more deserving players who have waited much longer for enshrinement. The players that I said were overdue are the ones who should go in first. The "not yet" crowd have the HOF stats, but can wait their turn like everyone else.
