Models are predicting around an inch of rain.
Quote
The first slug of rain is poised to arrive late Tuesday night or Wednesday morning.
Rain may ease late Wednesday into Thursday — when occasional drizzle or light showers are more likely — before a possible second wave of steady rain Thursday night.
A few showers could linger into Friday, but that’s less certain.

My point was more addressing the hypocrisy of having game memorabilia from a certain player in the Hall but not ALLOWING the player themselves. Therein lies the difference...
Whether he deserved / deserves to be in the HoF is one thing...whether he deserved / deserves a vote is yet another...

Well, Bonds also didn't bet on baseball

The Red Loft / Re: Capitals 2024-2025
« Last post by varoadking on Today at 12:55:00 pm »I'd say there's zero chance of Eller coming back.
I'd go so far as to say less than zero. I can't seem to find an infinity symbol on my keyboard or I'd use that...
Also, with Backy moving on...I assume that really creates a much bigger salary cap space for 2025-2026 and beyond with his salary off the books a year early? I'd like to see Bovi stick around...
We need a top line centerman...as we seem to have 3 second-line talent level guys in Stromer, Mikey and PLD...and somehow we have to get a top line D man and put Carlson on our bottom D pairing...

« Last post by varoadking on Today at 12:46:06 pm »Rose played from 1963 until 1981, after which he dragged out those last years trying to win a stat rather than games. His era was that of Rod Carew, who out hit Rose's average .328 / .303, out-slugged Rose .429 / .409, and who finished with a lifetime OPS of .822 while Rose finished with .784. Carew deserves to be in the Hall. People should not be misled by all the public relations rah-rah about Rose. Compare Rose to George Brent, who is also in the HOF. Same era as Carlton Fisk and teammates Tony Perez and Johnny Bench.
While teams feared pitching to Bench, Perez, and George Foster, did they fear Rose, the singles hitter? When you watched the Reds, weren't you more impressed by Ken Griffey?
The issue is whether he deserved / deserves to get the vote...let the chips fall where they may and let the subsequent debate regardless of the outcome begin...

« Last post by varoadking on Today at 12:42:41 pm »Being a Hall of Famer is an honor for the player. I'm fine with keeping Rose out while still acknowledging his impact on this history of baseball. It's the same thing with Bonds and his record breaking home run balls.
Bonds hasn't been officially barred from the HoF...so it's quite different...
