Who doesn't vote for Ripken?

[jsarno]

This disturbs me:

Ty Cobb was left off four ballots, Nolan Ryan wasn't on six, Hank Aaron on nine, Babe Ruth on 11 and Willie Mays on 23. Joe DiMaggio needed to appear on the ballot three times to get in, receiving 44 percent and 69 percent in his first two tries.

Wow...How can it take DiMaggio 3 times, or Aaron 9? Babe Ruth was THE BEST player of his era, hands down, and he was on 11? Mays on 23? Come on! He was arguably the best baseball player of all time!

That being said, I honestly feel that guy, Ledewski, should be stripped of his right to vote. Ripken is a no brainer for the hall. No question. You don't put in a no vote. Vote for Gossage or Rice...both of whom are extremely derserving, and neither played in the steroid era.
