Hypocrisy among HOF voters

In Dr. Z's latest SI.com article, he lists current players who make it to the Hall of Fame. Please note that he, along with Peter King of SI, has been a vocal Monk-basher when the vote comes around.

Here are some "Sure Things":

Quote:
Marvin Harrison -- Huge numbers will bring him in.

Curtis Martin and Jerome Bettis -- Nos. 4 and 5, respectively, on the career rushing list.

Marshall Faulk -- No. 12, but fourth in total yards from scrimmage (rushing and pass catching).

Aeneas Williams and Derrick Brooks -- Long and meritorious service at corner and outside linebacker, respectively.
Please note that Monk has been excoriated because "numbers aren't everything", and "a long career isn't necessarily a great one".

I'm not trying to debate the merits of the players he's listed, but for Christ's sake! Be consistent in your arguments!
