Re: [MLB] Roger Clemens signs..

He wants to pitch at least one game in the majors this year. That will delay his appearance on the Hall of Fame ballot for 5(?) years. He knows he won't get in if he's voted on any time soon, so he wants to delay it thinking people will forget.

Silly Roger... It's not the people that have to forget... It's the Baseball Writers... And they have loooong memories...

Shit changes over time. It's the reason they have a 15 year window. Jim Rice was hated by the writers, but eventually that faded, and he caught the ballot on a weak year.
