FINAL----HOF Ballot- Submit your own!
 
First off, if this needs to go in a different area, feel free to move it Leon.

I figured it would be a fun idea to submit our own votes for this years baseball HOF. I thought that setting up a forum poll would be the easiest and most accurate way of doing it, but I figured that some of you will be voting for those outside the normal top 10, which is the max for a poll on here I believe.

A few rules:

1) You can vote for as little as 1 player or a max of up to 10.
2) Only list the names, not your opinions of why you think they should get in
3) You are aloud to edit your votes up until we get closer to the final announcement.
4) Do not be judgemental of someones choices. If someone would like to vote on Mike Timlin, we might not agree, but be respectful.
5) Once we get close to the official announcement, we will post our own results.


Below are the names on the ballot:


Jack Morris
Jeff Bagwell
Tim Raines
Lee Smith
Curt Schilling
Roger Clemens
Edgar Martinez
Alan Trammell
Larry Walker
Fred McGriff
Mark McGwire
Don Mattingly
Sammy Sosa
Rafael Palmeiro
Mike Mussina
Jeff Kent
Kenny Rogers
Luis Gonzalez
Moises Alou
Ray Durham
Hideo Nomo
Tom Glavine
Richie Sexson
Paul Lo Duca
Armando Benitez
Frank Thomas
Mike Timlin
Barry Bonds
Sean Casey
Jacque Jones
Greg Maddux
Eric Gagne
Craig Biggio
J.T. Snow
Todd Jones
Mike Piazza


I'll go first:

Frank Thomas
Tom Glavine
Greg Maddux
Jeff Kent

p.s. there's respectful, then there's insanity. if someone votes for mike timlin i would block the member so i don't have to deal with his instability in the future.

1) Greg Maddox (Definitely- A lock even though he's a c***) I'm a poet and don't even know it
2) Tom Glavine (Definitely)
3) Frank Thomas (Definitely the best hitting big man that I ever have seen in my lifetime)


I also like Jack Morris (The pitcher of the 1980's decade), Craig Biggio and Edgar Martinez as very strong possibilities.

Next year I would vote for Frank Thomas and Tom Glavine I believe they are HOFers just not first ballot HOFers. I think that is reserved for the truly special players.

Maddux and Thomas.

While I am sure Piazza will get his share of votes, being the best hitting catcher of all time (and arguably, I would put at least Yogi and Bench ahead of him), he cannot make up for being the worst defensive catcher of all time.

Glavine
Maddux (duh!)
Big Hurt
Piazza (someday I'll have to start a thread to see what people have against him!)

I'd include the following, who I don't think are on the level above:
Jeff Kent
Biggio
Mussina.


I love Jack Morris, but just am not sure about him being a HOFer. Same with Raines.
I think the Shilling (years of dominance) vs. Mussina (years of steady quality) debate should be talked about more!!

He's dead to the voters.
Also he did look quite pale last time I saw him.

Is that hysterical, or what? Why do people want to change their skin color. Too weird!
Slammin' Sammy Sosa = Michael Jackson :eek:

Harder than I thought. There's close to 20 guys on that list that I think should be in the HOF. These are just my top 10. BTW, I would vote for the PED guys..

Just for fun, I'll also write in: Albert Belle..

Anyways, given the log-jam, I think voters will put in a larger class this year, to clear things out moving forward.. Piazza, Biggio, Glavine, Maddux, Thomas and possibly Bagwell all get in this year. Glavine and Maddux go in as teammates, which is another reason that I think Baggy gets in this year, I think he'll tag-along with Biggio(although, I could see this happening next year).
