Big Papi Gets Hall Call; Bonds, Clemens out...
- Thread starter Heim
- Start date
I remember the David Ortiz of the Minnesota Twins in the late 1990s.
He was NOT a Hall-of-Famer.
In fact, he was barely hanging on as a Minnesota Twin.
Manager Tom Kelly liked players who rarely struck out and defended their position well.
Ortiz was 0-for-2.

He was known as David Arias then. I think I remember his Twins Topps card with that name.

It’s a joke that Bonds, Rose, and Clemens are not in the HOF…and another joke that Maz is…

ya, that's Hypocrite~City.Yep Papi clean
That really rubs me the wrong way.
They {the media/voters and those who are screw'n Bonds & Clemens} should take down the hof museum too cause they {owners, networks, mlb league, & players, ect...} knew exactly what was go'n on during the whole roid era.
Surely this has everything to do about players kiss'n ass to the media, and not about what has happened in the field of play.
Cooperstown no longer appears on my bucket list.

TYVM Morgan William!!!
Harold Baines, too. Phil Rizzuto is only in because he played for The Evil Empire
I actually have no problem with Pete Rose not being in. A sign with lettering big enough to be seen on the Moon is on the front door of every clubhouse saying DO NOT GAMBLE on baseball. Pete did. I am fine with him not getting in.
Curt Schilling is not in because of his politics. Writers are scared to death of what his speech will be like. I think his politics suck. But Curt Schilling IS a HOFer

He hit over .600 in a world series when everyone else hit under .200
He tested positive for peds when they told the players they were going to test .
But He has a big smile so the writers like him n voted him in.
The voters r fkn pussies

It's all about who pees in the cup.
You should still go. Go in August, and its only about 75 miles or so to Saratoga.
But don't stay in Schenectady.

How the fuck does this guy get in? Lol
At this point the entire thing needs to be eliminated. Come up with something new.
