    He was one of, if not the face of baseball during the steroid era.

    Super happy for Larry Walker but it does feel like there was an agenda being pushed for him the past few weeks... Deserving HOFer though, would've sucked to see him left out for good

    Yea he was a good player on a great team. It’s not like he was a top 20 player all time

    This whole unanimous/non-unanimous thing is dumb as hell anyway. Fake stigma created by baseball writers and none of it makes any sense.

    Unless the baseball hall of fame plans to introduce tiers or levels of some sort, there should be no difference between a unanimous hall of famer and someone who got in by the skin of their teeth on their 10th year. As it stands right now, the hall of fame is just the hall of fame. Everyone is elected to the same one no matter what.

    Baseball writers are elitists and this method of electing players to the HOF is dumb as hell in the first place

    No one saying he is but he's certainly a HOF player.

    He didn't have any negative marks on his career that spanned 20 years during a era where players were taking PEDs.

    I really don't care about the unanimous s*** either but if players need to have a sparkling clean career to get 100%, it's Jeter.

    The thing is the percentage has a lot to do with how well did the player treat the media.

    This is a d*** measuring contest for the writers as well.

    Jeter must have treated the media well to get the 2nd highest percentage of all time. I guess that jerking off paid off for him.

    Except that one little pissant that wanted to be contrarian.

    Must've been a Boston or Miami writer.

    Absolutely agree with your second point. Baseball writers consider themselves to be the elite of the elite in the baseball world and they use their vote as a weapon against any player who didn't treat them as royalty

    The fact that you care so much as a fan, albeit a Yankees fan, is a good part of where they get their source of power from

    I honestly don't care. I'm happy Jeter's in, as he should be.

    It's whatever. I knew there was gonna be one writer that wouldn't vote for him.

    I mean you can't claim bias against the Yankees because the only unanimous HOFer ever was a lifetime Yankee.

    That's because there isn't s*** to dig up on him that a writer can vote against him.

    Unlike Jeter who got a lot of s*** for the things he did once he got part ownership of the Marlins.

    how can you be mad that Jeter got the 2nd highest percentage of all time? There is only 1 player in history who was paid more respect by the voters. And there are tons of players who deserved it more than jeter

    It’s funny as f*** tho cuz Yankees fans are talking about this rather than jeters accomplishments lol

    That's because a lot of his "accomplishments" aren't based off of statistics or actual play lmao they're based off his name

    Type Xavier Rhodes getting voted to the pro bowl this year

    I'm not mad. You want to see mad? Go on social media and see the real butthurt fans throwing insults and death threats like idiots.

    I could discuss his accomplishments in here but I don't feel like it atm.
