Hall Of Fame doesn't seem to mean much anymore, look at some of those names. HOF should mean the best of the very best.

The longer time goes on, the more dilluted it gets.

It seems.

100% agree. they let borderline in just because they reach certain "markers".

Pretty soon people will be saying shit like "by today's standards some of these guys from early on would never have made it"

And when it comes to some rule changes, they might be right. But you have to respect guys who set records, even if the records have been broken.

Because at the time, they were the shit, the best, and no way around that.

It's ignorant of people to say that, it's those players from the past that made these Sports into what they are now.

right. and this is why you can't compare eras and superstars during those eras to each other.

nick swisher shane victorino.... wtf no.

**seaborneq** · 11-17-20, 04:58 PM

The problem with all the hall of fames is that they are compelled to put in a certain number every year. Some years there may be only one true hall of famer but they still put in a minimum of 5-7. Just crazy. It should be diluted by that standard

**MinnesotaFats** · 11-17-20, 05:33 PM

Frankly I put Bonds in as the ONLY juiced hitter to get in.

Clemens needs to be in too

Not true. In MLB you need to be named on 75% of ballots to get in. There have been many years where no one was inducted into baseball HOF.

**Buckandadime** · 11-17-20, 06:31 PM

If they are going to keep all the juiced up guys on the list, where is Palmiero?

**big joe 1212** · 11-17-20, 06:36 PM

Bonds is the most feared hitter of all time but still not in

75% of guys were juicing including pitchers

**Otters27** · 11-17-20, 06:37 PM

Used to love watching these guys bomb the ball all jacked up on steroids

He didn't get the minimum last time thru

Shame, 3000 hits, 500 hrs, .300 hitter

Guy IS a HOF player but he lied to congress so there's that...

**DiggityDaggityDo** · 11-17-20, 10:56 PM

Mark McGwire
Sammy Sosa
Pete Rose

Three players that made MLB exciting.

Let's Go!

That keeps the standard very high in baseball. The other leagues have minimum numbers every year. Definitely dilutes the hall of fame and makes it seem as though there are different levels/wings in each hall of fame. Jerry Rice, Art Monk and Andre Reed are all in the hall of fame, but Jerry rice needs his own wing.
