Hi, is someone threatening to murder you if you say otherwise? Blink twice for yes, we will send help. Read more

Philly should be bottom five, but Pittsburgh should be bottom ten here, too. Also, Cincinnati is ranked way too highly.

Also, New York is a shit-smelling garbage hole and is the single most overrated city in the world. Read more

Did you just see “DC suburb” and assume “well to-do?” Because uh, Columbia is...not that. Read more

Ok but how far could Wile E. Coyote punt a—*crushed by Acme anvil* Read more

“DIMAGGIO DIDN’T GET IN ON THE FIRST BALLOT, THEREFORE NO ONE SHOULD” Read more

I mean, yeah, he’s a Hall of Famer. He’s just not as good as most people seem to think. Read more

He’s not even really the best shortstop of his era. Read more

I...don’t think so? Schilling was one of the few players during the 90's who was very vocally surrounding the alarm on steroids (Frank Thomas and Jim Thome are the other two main names I can remember). The only way a player sounds the alarm on steroids before the fact if they’re using is if they are smart enough to Read more

Duke Snider played in New York. If Jorge Posada had played for the Astros, everyone would laugh at the idea of him ever getting into the fucking Hall. Read more

Staying healthy is a skill. Bagwell could do it. McGwire could not. The idea that one player’s brittleness is irrelevant to the discussion is lunacy. Read more

Seriously, this isn’t...this isn’t a discussion. Why is anyone having this discussion? Bagwell was one of the best all-around first basemen ever. This is like arguing Craig Biggio (one of the best second basemen of all-time) doesn’t belong in the Hall because he wasn’t the greatest ever at any one particular thing Read more

This isn’t even remotely close. By any measurement other than flat home runs, Bagwell was not just a better player than McGwire, but a SIGNIFICANTLY better player. Read more

This isn’t even a question. Bagwell is ABSOLUTELY a Hall of Famer, and should not have had to wait this long. Read more

Not going to lie: came here to compare WAR totals and refute this, and was shocked to find out I was COMPLETELY wrong. Wow. Read more

As much as I hate Pittsburgh (and I have to live here, so trust me, I hate it a lot), it hasn’t belonged in the same list as those cities for a long time now. It’s made a huge economic comeback in the last decade+. Read more

I’m still trying to figure out how the fuck more people voted for Trevor Hoffman than Mike Mussina or Curt Schilling (did all former 38 Studios employees get HOF votes as part of their severance packages?). Read more

Do you guys actually have stories any more, or just 50-word blurbs with a video attached? Read more
