What is this mania for preserving the "standards" of the HOF? Sure, there are some clunkers in there (Hooper, Ferrell, the infamous Frisch-led infield of Kelly, Jackson, and Lindstrom), but for the most part the Veterans Committee has righted a lot of omissions that the sportswriters collectively committed.

+2. If Arky's not in there, you need to kick out every SS not name Honus Wagner. I'm glad the current committee didn't elect anyone. I don't think those guys are HOFers, but looking at the back log on the ballot right now, I can see the need a few years down the road.
