It's easy, and only takes a few moments.Gotta say while it's great for Tip and long overdue it nauseated me to see the blue lipped boxing scribe in the leather jacket sitting in the front row - the only Boston voter and he's not even regularly employed in the city any longer...
He righted McDonough's wrong, payback for his inherited voter for life status I guess. But there is something wrong with the HOF voting system too. Maybe when he has some free time Senator Spector could look into that seeing how important the integrity of all things NFL are to him.
Ron-Ron has caused all of us some major grief over the years, but I can't get mad at him for being a HoF voter. It's one area, much like when he writes about boxing, where he's been exactly on point; Tip's lone voice in the dark for years and years. Ron Burgers kept fighting the good fight until, finally, his rationale seeped into the rest of the morons with a vote.
Borges is actually a pretty nice guy. I've had two conversations with him in the past -- talked mostly about boxing. He's a very polite fellow, which can be somewhat of a shock considering the perception I had of him beforehand.Seems strange to say Borges was the voice of reason, but in this circumstance he actually was. Anyway, I'm glad for Andre, and I really believe he should have been in the hall a long time ago.
