Jim Rice, Red Sox

Jim Ed finally got in!! What a travesty making him wait so long. Final Ballot. The guy was great and the writers did not acknowledge it. You cannot tell me some sort of prejudice did not play a part. I'm not flipping the race card here. There's always extenuating circumstances. His demeanor might have been a factor. Whatever it was - forget the numbers - defense was there as well and I love the 3 left fielders in 50 years scenario. Great player. Great to watch. And he's from South Carolina!!!! What's not to like there??
