Cooperstown Goose

Congrats to Gossage.

And, John Hiller, I'm thinking of you.

Update: A little Gossage trivia for you today.

I get the feeling that Goose is going to let loose a bitter harangue in his acceptance speech and beat the steroid users over their heads. I hope he doesn't and instead celebrates a fine career and a worthy inclusion.

Ever been there before, Raf? It's something I keep telling myself I will do eventually, and then never get around to.

=============================================
I've been there twice just to visit the museum but never for an induction ceremony. But I've decided that I'll be there for A-Rod's, Rivera's, and, hopefully, for Rocket's.

induction ceremonies are insane - good luck

Been there a handful of times, during induction ceremonies and other times during the year.

I was there in '99, and it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. Got in and out with no problems. I parked in a lot, took the trolley in, and wandered around the area. Took in the Induction Ceremonies too.

I think some of those writers just check every box, why does david justice and knbloauch recieve a HOF vote? why does travis fryman get 2!! votes?
