All the votes are in, and when the ballot results are released on January 9th, we’ll finally know if I’ve been inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame. After much anticipation, and six weeks of long and tedious debates, the Baseball Writers Association of America will finally make their selection, a statement that marks those amongst the greatest and [...]

[image title="Cooperstown1006" size="full" id="23417" align="center" linkto="full" ]Earlier this week, my post on John Franco and the Hall of Fame inspired some great discussion.
