Santo Snubbed Again By HoF

Once again, the $^%$#@! Baseball Hall of Fame failed to recognize Ron Santo, who fell 9 votes short this time around. Waxing America has been obsessed with the Hall's failure to elect Santo, or Minnie Minoso, or Gil Hodges.

Here are the 64 Hall members who voted; 48 votes were needed.  If you know any of these guys, let'em know what to do next time.

Hank Aaron     Orlando Cepeda     Al Kaline     Eddie Murray     Red Schoendienst  Sparky Anderson     Bobby Doerr     George Kell     Stan Musial     Tom Seaver   Luis Aparicio     Dennis Eckersley     Harmon Killebrew     Phil Niekro     Ozzie Smith   Ernie Banks     Bob Feller     Ralph Kiner     Jim Palmer     Duke Snider Johnny Bench     Rollie Fingers  Sandy Koufax     Tony Perez     Bruce Sutter Yogi Berra     Carlton Fisk    Tommy Lasorda     Gaylord Perry     Don Sutton   Wade Boggs 
   Whitey Ford     Lee MacPhail     Cal Ripken Jr.     Earl Weaver  George Brett     Bob Gibson     Juan Marichal     Robin Roberts     Billy Williams
Lou Brock     Goose Gossage     Willie Mays     Brooks Robinson 
   Dick Williams  Jim Bunning     Tony Gwynn     Bill Mazeroski     Frank Robinson  Dave Winfield  Rod Carew     Monte Irvin     Willie McCovey     Nolan Ryan     Robin Yount  Steve Carlton     Reggie Jackson     Paul Molitor     Ryne Sandberg     Carl Yastrzemski   Gary Carter   
 Fergie Jenkins  Joe Morgan     Mike Schmidt    

As for me, my comment is still the same as it was in February, 2007, when Santo missed by 5 votes:  Feh.
