I don't really care. Rivera's first ballot, and no one needs to be unanimous. But this guy's a dick.

People like this are why I can’t stand hall of fame voters. If a player is the best ever (or top 2 or 3) at an aspect of the game, why isn’t that hall worthy? Shane Lechler for example may not be as “sexy” as Barry Sanders or Lawrence Taylor, but if he’s among the best punters ever then I’d have no problem with him being elected. Writers are douches just trying to get Twitter likes.
