The way players get to the Hall has been changed:
HOF Voting
I like these changes as the influence of actually HOFers are greater.
Also what is interesting is players can only be elected ever odd year...so Ripken and Gwynn will be up in 2007...and because of this some years there may be no ceremony

| This is a good idea. This way the players get more than one chance to get into the HOF. |

| I thought that before once they were on the ballot they couldn't be again (I may be wrong) |

This new system is great. Now actual Hall of Famers vote them in or something.

| I agree totally with this. Now, bonafide HOFs will get in instead of people who shouldn't get in. |
