Actually this year would be a great year to go for fans of the old players. Not only is Deacon White going in about 70 years too late, but they will also have a formal ceremony for the entire 1945 class(plus Hornsby and Gehrig) If you collect pre-war cards, the 1945 class is some heavy-hitters!

Bresnahan, Brouthers, Clarke, Jimmy Collins, Delahanty, Jennings, O'Rourke, Duffy, Wilbert Robinson, King Kelly!

I'm thinking about going now! No one elected this year by the BBWAA might the best thing for people from this board. The weekend is going to be loaded with pre-WWI players being honored
