He's being crucified by the media right now because he opposes perverts and rapists in girl's bathrooms. He's been eligible for the HOF the last 4 years but they keep telling him to FO. BaseballReference.com lists him as the 26th best pitcher of all time. And that's based on regular season play. In postseason he was arguably the greatest pitcher of all time.

1. Yes his politics are most likely playing a roll in him being denied.

2. He was a pitcher during the steroid era and some believe he might have been using...
 
Plenty of conservatives have been inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame.

BS. He never bulked up and never looked like a roid-head. He played ball in that era but so did Griffey and he just got voted in with 99.3%

Yeah - curt doesn't want little girls molested and raped and killed by pervos. You are truly sick.
 
you are truly sick for putting it that way, and shamelessly dishonest, as if anyone wants those things.

Baseball's (political) heavy hitters

And unlike the great Pete Rose, Major League Baseball is definitely not a switch-hitter in its giving; more than 75 percent of contributions tied to teams went to conservative causes. In fact, ball clubs gave four times more to Republicans than Democrats. On the extreme right were the Pittsburgh Pirates, Cincinnati Reds, the Kansas City Royals and the Texas Rangers, all of which gave exclusively to the GOP. The Cubs organization, whose billionaire owner Joe Ricketts went on an "ending spending" spree, maintained the highest overall donation rate to Republicans with an astounding $12.7 million, mostly funneling into super PACs. On the other end of the spectrum, the Baltimore Orioles and Minnesota Twins gave 99 percent and 95 percent, respectively, of their contributions to Democrats. Led by CEO and longtime liberal advocate Peter Angelos, the Os sent $1.8 million to Democratic causes, three times as much as the Twins. The Los Angeles Dodgers are also blue in more ways than just their uniforms, and, politically speaking, so are the San Francisco Giants.

You are right. Jim Bunning wasn't outspoken at all. :rolleyes:

No he wasn't. He was your standard political hack who used his House seat to make money. He didn't care about the issues.

BTW - bunning was a weak choice for the HOF. The voters rejected him 15 years and then the veterans's committee put him in. I don't hesitate to say Curt was better.

Wrong.

He's being justifiably criticized for being an ignorant bigot, like many others on the right.

Only bigots are you liberals who support affirmative action, the govt mandated persecution of white males and the biggest hate crime in america.

It's insane to let men use the ladies BR just because they want to. Open invitation to crime. Makes as much sense as letting people drive drunk just because they want to. THINK
