Default New Veterans Committee- Every 5 Years Pre-War Players
Posted By: Peter_Spaeth

It seems to me that if someone from the beginning of baseball through WW II hasn't made it yet, after a zillion elections, they aren't really worthy. If anything there are too MANY players already eapecially from the 30s. Rick Ferrell? Chick Hafey? Travis Jackson? and so on and so on.

I have no problem with the 21 year rule either, and would be inclined to shorten it considerably. Too many guys are in because of nostalgia.
