Re: HOF Voting

Only 1/2 the owners voted?? 5 of 7 remaining founders (we actually remember Gilhooley) voted. I can understand some of the newer owners not voting because they didn't know these guys, though Texas did so. I suppose 50% isn't really bad, but I would have liked to see more.

PS - It's funny how some leagues have a lot of chatter, etc while others do not.

I haven't voted in any HOF simply because i've only been here 4 seasons i don't think its right 2 vote when i haven't played against these players.

This is a quiet league when it comes 2 chatter, i guess it just depends on what group of owners you get together. Some people like 2 just play the game & don't bother with the message boards & some people you just cant keep off the message boards!!

I just got laid off, so maybe I'll have time to be more friendly!

I'm fine. It's a blessing. Didn't mean to bum anybody out. I've earned the rest, I've got a grandbaby, and it's spring in California. And now I can look at this message board more frequently.

It is okay to vote even if you are new to the league. We all make judgement calls on the Hall of Fame. Hence no one's opinion is of greater value than another's. Perhaps voting simply for players who clear cut deserve the honor, such as a 300 win pitcher or a hitter who has 500+ homers, etc.

I voted in every ballot since I joined the league. I enjoy participating in HOF.

Sometimes it's a no brainer, sometimes I try to figure how much better they were than the rest of the league during their time, like Gilhooley.

Anyway, ryang does a great job on the HOF.

I encourage everyone, new or old to the RRL, to participate in the HOF voting and nominating process. It only takes a few min to go through the league history, see what numbers have already been accomplished in terms of career leaders, and make a judgement from there.

And I wish we did have more chatter on this board...but as commish, I certainly dont mind living without some of the drama that goes on in the other leagues.

Amen to that.
