Same...and I'm a huge Yanks and Mariano fan.

Figured at least a couple writers would have held out based on the Closer/Reliever argument.

I am certainly not in favor of forcing writers to publicly reveal their votes. Not with the Troll culture we have today.

Vote for so and so or death threats will immediately ensue, while Stephen A. Smith and Chris Russo and Skip Bayless and Pat McAfee and whoever the hell else, publicly eviscerates you to their Millions+ brainless audiences.
