Great point. It's a shame though that the media types have almost all the power on HoF balloting. When I made my first post and joined the Warpath, it was from outrage at Monk not being inducted this past HoF class and I just had to vent somewhere.

I would like to see a more balanced approach to the HoF balloting with living HoF members and maybe a committee of current and former players/coaches. To me their opinions on who should be in the HoF carries a lot more weight than a bunch of media types.
