after over 100 years of baseball and no HOF, would morris inspire me to build one. No. niether would ryne sandburg, or bruce sutter, or kirby puckett, or Mazzeroski, or Jesse Haines or dozens of others already in.
heres some criteria, would you like to see morris pitch in a corn field in iowa with other guys who've made a mark in this game? me, id like to see jack in one of those games.
"Field of Dreams" standards, eh? Sounds like a new discussion topic, doesn't it? "Who would be your starting nine in the Field of Dreams?" Only then will you realize how many HoF players deserved their spots, even with the most exacting standards applied. How could anyone pick ONE pitcher for this team?
To redeck : you had to do it, didn't ya? Every time I watch that movie, I cry, without fail -- "Hey...Dad... you wanna play catch?" (aww...sniffle)
