[MedicCook]

Congrats to Rickey Henderson & Jim Rice for being inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame. Henderson definately deserves this honor while I am skepitcal about Rice getting in.

Why is that?

He was a dominant player and the most feared hitter in the AL for a few years. I thought it was ridiculous that it took 15 years for him to get in.

It's ridiculous that Bert Blyleven keeps getting overlooked.
I don't know why these sportwriters won't vote him in, if you look at his stats he ranks right up there with pitchers already in the HOF and has stats better than some of them.

Don't disagree that Henderson should get in. They'll need to give him 2 spots at the Hall to accommodate his ego.
