I don't really like them trying to sway his opinion in that way. Not sure why. (sports.espn.go.com)

Why is JackDawson being put into any hall of fame? - JaxSean Jan 11, 11:39 6

    - I though *I* was the most notable outdrinkee? :( -- nm - znufrii Jan 11, 11:49
    - we should have called it "outdrink and not be completely obnoxious" contest. nm -- nm - groiny Jan 11, 11:46
    - You mispelled, "The I can outdrink all of your asses, if it's cheap ass liquor" Hall of Fame. :) -- nm - Jim Jan 11, 11:43 1

I do not really care, I do not think he should be in there in the first place. nm -- nm - groiny Jan 11, 11:37 6
- Well, they had to induct *somebody*. -- nm - Spawn: Champion of ST Jan 11, 11:38 5
  - They came awfully close to not. Has there ever been a year that they didn't vote any players in? -- nm - Reagen Jan 11, 11:43
  - Well, they did have one of the top 5 or 6 second basemen ever to play the game, and one of the best pitchers ever..... - musubi Jan 11, 11:39 3
    - *sends in a blank ballot* -- nm - Spawn: Champion of ST Jan 11, 11:41 2
      - You and Jay Mariotti, congratulations. (nm) - musubi Jan 11, 11:42 1
        
        Mine was so the Hall could fill it in, silly. -- nm - Spawn: Champion of ST Jan 11, 11:44

Eff the Cubs if they don't wanna retire his number becuase of that. -- nm - Will Hunting Jan 11, 11:36
If anything I hope this makes the HOF more likely to choose Montreal as his cap. - musubi Jan 11, 11:35 2
- Boggs as a Ray would have been a travesty. -- nm - Reagen Jan 11, 11:36 1
  - I'm hoping that they call Clemen's bluff, and put him in as a Red Sox when he gets in. - musubi Jan 11, 11:37
it's my understanding that it's not up to the player. -- nm - Reagen Jan 11, 11:34 2
- The HOF has bascially said they're torn and will take Dawson's input. - Will Hunting Jan 11, 11:35
- ultimately no, though their opinion is considered. -- nm - TFox Jan 11, 11:35
