The Baseball Writers Association of America has stripped ESPN radio host and Miami Herald writer Dan Le Batard of his Hall of Fame vote for life, they announced. He turned his vote over to Deadspin this year, albeit for no compensation.

Dumbass blowhard or not good for him!

Pretty much every baseball HOF voter/writer guy should go fuck himself. What a horrible process and stupid set of criteria to even come close to getting it right. More writers should do what Le Batard did and ruin that entire process.

And they can all rot in hell with Morris and Trammel not making it. Seriously rot in fucking hell.

BAM!

Remember when Le Batard was rumored to be the only person to not vote for LeBron for MVP last season? Too bad that wasn't true, because that'd make this even better.

I never thought much bad or good about him till this. I like him now.

I was watching something and who's the little dufus guy that everyone makes fun of his voice, but he forgot more about baseball than we'll ever know...anyway he said its a shame Jack Morris isn't getting in. He said the peeps who vote don't even remember him. He said they should be required to interview some of the batters that played against Morris cuz he did and those batters said that Morris was a flat out monster. They said he should be in the HOF.

Its a fuckin circus.

I'd love to know which dufus you're talking about and see or read about that. He's 100% right. I remember Simmons once writing about this and putting it right: Morris was the most dominant starter of the 80's, the one who you wanted on the mound for your team in the big games and the one you didn't want to face. They should absolutely talk to batters, teammates and opposing executives of the time to get a real picture of a player. That would be a real, logical and correct process to do this.

Instead we have know-it-all writers who go on pure statistical evidence without a single idea of context. If I had to stand face to face with some moron who tried to show me simply in numbers why Morris shouldn't be there I'd have a hard time stopping myself from kneeing the cunt's balls through his nose. This comes close to the cunts who actually try to use stats to say that John Stockton was actually an equal of Isiah's. Well, maybe those cunts are even worse.

Kurkjian.
