What a joke
Seeing these names and Jeff Kent being the lone one elected in the HOF is wild to me
Criminal
That’s bs!
What about Andruw Jones? Is there more voting?
Fuck Jeff Kent
Dale was a little before my time but I feel like I’m missing something. How has he not made it to the HOF?
Can someone explain to me why he keeps getting fucked?
People consider Bryce Harper to be a first ballot hof but compare him to Murph.

You’re telling me that Harold Baines deserves the hall more? Bullshit
What a maddening institution.
HOF is a joke without Bonds or Clemens in it
2x NL MVP, 5x Gold Glove Award winner. Not his fault he played on some forgettable 80s Braves teams. I can understand not being inducted on the standard ballot but era’s committee should have voted him in. HOF voting is a farce at this point anyway.
Complete bullshit!
What does the world have against Murph?
Bullshit.
Who cares about the Hall of Fame anymore? I mean, seriously.. they do this shit just to drum up controversy.
I don’t need a bunch of fat, sweaty, never has been sports “writers” telling ME who’s in the Hall of Fame.
Fuck em. Jones and Murphy are in my HoF. That’s all that matters to me
Baseball hall of fame has been a joke for I don’t know how long
At least he got enough to stay eligible for the next ballot
Anti Murphy Bias. Murphy: Career (Approx): ~2500 Hits, ~400 HRs, ~1200 RBIs, .265 AVG, .815 OPS, high WAR. Kent:Career (Approx): ~2400 Hits, ~377 HRs, ~1500 RBIs, .290 AVG, ~ .850 OPS, higher WAR.
What kind of fuckery is this shit? Ugh.
