      LOL, that's what I'm talking about.... Stros fans are true that's why I respect yall. You can honestly root for a team that trades it's best players away continously, NEVER won a championship and still argue that the team isn't a losing Team! You guys are the best!

              You can't see it because you are a homer. Same player. Young was an Allstar at 2nd 3rd and ss. You could put him down for over 200 hits every year.

                How in the hell did Curt Schilling only get 38% of the votes? THat's crazy.

                It's also crazy that Biggio didn't get in. Next year will be his year.

                  actually looking at the numbers, i was wrong. through 13 years all of Youngs numbers are superior to biggio's. if young just averages what he did this past year for 7 more years his numbers will blow biggio's away. and i really considered young to have a down year this year.

                    Bagwell is one of the biggest chokers the game has ever seen. What did he bat in the playoffs ? something like .125 ? the guy played 10 years before he ever got a game winning hit.


                    I quit watching baseball during the strike when ol' Bigwheel said he didnt care if people came to games or not, he got his $$.

                      Biggio will get in next time. Biggio retired and helped coach his sons highschool baseball team. They played our highschool that year at our field and to prevent any distractions by him being their he went and visited with our boys before the game. He was very humble and gave each boy on our team advice. He also did not turn down one autograph after the game. He must have stayed an hour after the game for all the younger kids that wanted to meet him! Pure Class Act.

                          Huge BGO and Bagwell fan. I hope they both make it. From what I hear thats pretty common and BGO should should be in next year for sure !

                                Anyone that played during the steroid era is going to have it tough.

                                I'm still surprised Jack Morris didn't make it in his final year.
