Great main-page pic, AndyMacFAIL. Those two were the best team ever.

Stroh's can! Busted, Harry! Pretty sure this is when he was shilling for Falstaff.

Andy, Thanks for the Nellie Fox pic. Him along with Billy Pierce were my most favorite White Sox players. And it makes me very happy that Fox was finally inducted into the Hall. IMHO he was underrated but highly deserving of the honor.

Great to see Dick Allen up on the banner.  What an incredible hitter he was, and I don't understand why he's not in the Hall of Fame.

Cannot comment on that as he was before my time....

However... Considering the nature of steroid claims... and the fact that FT's hall of fame credentials was a hotly contested debate.... How stupid are the same writers that questioned his credentials going to feel?

I'm not following you.  Why are Frank Thomas' HOF credentials contested?  Because he was primarily a designated hitter for most of his career?  I think that's an invalid point, as the DH is a legit position in the American League.  Debating whether there should be a DH is another issue entirely.

Doesnt matter... while he was playing that was the big rub... I think after the steroid era... he'll end up being a unanimous selection.

I believe the big issue will be FT's being a DH. As for Dick Allen, like Nellie Fox, I believe beyond a doubt Dick Allen belongs in the Hall. Like certain players, such as Santo and a few others who had a lot of detractors who on the veterans committee wouldnt vote for Allen. I couldnt believe it that such a player wasnt in the Hall.

Yeah, but it's well established that FT never juiced.  And still, he was able to accomplish as much or more as the guys in his era that did.

He was robbed of at least one more MVP award and probably a couple more Silver Slugger awards too, just because the guys who topped him in those instances were loaded up with 'roids.

saving this for future reference (NSFW language in the meme)

Helpful Hint:  If you wish to save something for future use, go to the "Main Page" and use the "Testing Area" board as it will be easier to locate later.  To make it even easier, I set up a "JoeyC's storage" thread there for you.

Cool- my banner ad on this site on the last click was "Browse thousands of Denver singles" with alluring shots of blonds. Nice job aka Loveland, but I'm married and faithful.
