In fairness, I think the thread stopped being about Dunn awhile back. Now it's more of a Reggie Jackson/what makes a Hall of Famer? thread.

My 2 cents, Jackson was a Hall of Famer. Not a top tier all time great. But if it's the Hall of FAME, then Reggie certainly qualifies. One of those guys that you wouldn't take a bathroom break when he was coming up to bat. Of course, there are quite a few other guys that you could say the same thing about (Canseco in his prime, McGwire, Joey Belle, etc), but they we're either PED guys, dicks, had too short of a prime, or all of the above...

Desiderata

You are a child of the universe,
no less than the trees and the stars;
you have a right to be here.
And whether or not it is clear to you,
no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should.
With all its sham, drudgery, and broken dreams,
it is still a beautiful world.
Strive to be happy.
