It might -- you could be right -- but I just think it may not last too much longer.

Thanks for the clarification

Very happy to hear this. It seems to be compelling them to make good picks for once. Might still only be room for guys 1960-after though.

It really wont matter as much, until the super seniors get their due. If the number remains three, it will help mostly deserving eighties players.

That is my disappointment as well. With 3, there is room for 1 SS ... but they just don't seem like they will budge.

if they do go with porter's proposal of at least 1 super senior out of the 3 here are a few id like to see

Jim Benton

Gene Brito

Lavern Dilweg

Ox Emerson

Verne Lewellen

Riley Matheson

yes i have actually brian benton actually has a case for the hall when yoiu first look yeah he doesnt have a case but once you research his stats and the era he played in he does have a case

With Benton its more than stats because he helped the Bears win a championship replacing Kavanaugh, who was off to war and was a star on the first Cleveland team to win a championship ...
