Well...it happened...No players selected to Baseball Hall of Fame; Clemens gets more votes than Bonds

In a unprecedented move, the Baseball Writers of America, decide not to vote any players into Cooperstown.

Craig Biggio came the closest with 388 votes, only 68.8%. Players need 75% of the vote to be inducted.

Ironically, Roger Clemens received more votes than Barry Bonds. Clemens received 214 votes, 37.6%, and Barry Bonds got 206 votes, 36.2%.

If the best player and best pitcher are not in the Hall is it really the Hall-of-Fame???

This is the first of many years that PEDs will play a major factor. Sammy Sosa, Rafeal Palmeiro, and  Mark McGwire were denied also.
