Owners Up For Hall of Fame Induction

I've decided to put all new HOF Posts on this blog, in order to keep the HOF less cluttered. Once this years voting is over, I will delte the posts that are already on there. The HOF Blog will be reserved only for bios of players in the HOF, as well as details of each seasons voting history.

Here's the first post pertaining to the potential Class of Season 8. The following managers were in our league at some point in the first seven seasons, and I have decided they warrant discussion about a potential spot on the ballot.

Even I do not believe all of these members are deserving of making the HoF, but that decision is not up to me alone, so therefore the list is a little longer than who's qualified, and the HOFC will narrow it down even more, and then the entire league will make the final decision.

I don't think any of them are hall of fame worthy.

That's why you get to vote. Personally I see one I'm definitely voting yes for, and one I'm on the fence with.
