Maris on his career without regard to 1961 is not a HOF'er. As for the exception...eh? I really wouldn't care if Maris got in. He did something virtually unique. Yes, I know it goes against a lot of things to take the position. I don't know that I would vote for him if I had a vote. But just saying I'm going to find it hard to get fired-up about if he gets in one day.
