    Yep, too bad it happened after his death. I hate Baseball politics.

Why are we looking to reduce a subjective experience to objective criteria anyway? The subtleties of music and audio reproduction are for those who appreciate it.

    I agree Heiney. He deserves to be there and yet they wait till after his death to finally vote him in. That sucks, but I know he's still kicking his heels together. Awesome guy. We had a chance to talk to him at one of the JDRF walks a few years back. He was so interested in hearing about our daughter, who is diabetic, and wouldn't sign another autograph until he was done talking to us, like for 15 mins. Very personable. Congrats Ronny !!!

    It's a load of BS that they waited until after his passing. He was obviously worthy, but some people wanted him to add "be dead" to his r?sum? before casting their vote.

    Congrats Ron.

    He was as fine a 3rd baseman as there ever was, period...... Agree, it's too bad Ron wasn't given this to him while he was still with us. :sad:

    One of the best thats for sure and goes to show how f'ed up baseball has been over the past couple decades. It's sad to say but it will get worse before it gets better.

    GO RED SOX!!! Go where? Who the hell knows.
