Dawson Gains Entrance to Baseball Hall of Fame

[gmartinz01]

I saw him (with Montreal) single-handedly beat the Dodgers in Los Angeles, with his bat, his glove, his arm and his speed. After he leapt over the fence in center to pull back a homerun, everyone around me was bowing to him. Well earned, Andre

Was the best play of the 1980. He could do it all. But much more important than that he did it with integrity and humility.

that people try and bash one of the nicest guys ever known to the game of baseball! you people are a joke! My kids will know of Andre Dawson and he will forever live in the HOF hopefully with out the Roger Clemens, Palmeros, Andy Pettittes, Sammy Sosas and all the other cheatersthat played the game! I did mention that Roberto Alamor was juiced right? that's why he didn't get in and should never get in! Pete Rose isn't in they should never let the juicers in either!

[tfoss319]

The most feared hitter of his time! Only two player had 400 home runs and 300 stolen bases Willie Mays and Andre Dawson, Barry Bonds is veto'd from his because he was on steriods! If Dawson had two good knees he would have broke Hank Aarons home run record and prolly would have stole 500 bases! Put Andre Dawson on steriods like cheaters like alamor, bonds, mcgwire. manny arod and all the other pukes, He would have a 1000 home runs and 1000 stolen bases! Maybe I'm just mad,

Anyone that think Dawson should not be in the HOF is just plain stupid! He should have been in a long time ago! Roberto is not a first ballot hof'er and not sure he should ever go in! Dawson deserved it! 8 time all-star, gold glove MVP on a bad last place team! Had two bad knees he gave everything to the game! He is a Baseball GOD!

Mr Dawson is from the era where the real players balled!!! He deserves all of this, over coming pain for the game!!! Long live the Hawk!!!

I guess the hall is just letting anyone in now.

@badtown88 Dawson deserved it. He won an MVP award for a last place team, and had to play 11 years on the rough Astroturf in Stade Olympique. And as the video mentioned, he is one of only three players with 400+ home runs and 300+ steals.

@EricAKATheBelgianGuy

I don't know whether he deserved to get in or not, but I can tell you this: The fact that he got in, and Alomar didn't is a joke.

[BestTits]

@badtown88 Dawson didnt spit on an ump

[med3rd1]

What do you need to be in order to get into the HOF?:

Superman???

If Roberto Alomar didn't  get in his first time at it, who could?

Something's wrong here...

Dawson: Congratulations... You deserved it a long time ago!

With respect to Alomar, Baseball Writers: Shame on you for making what, probably, is your worst ridicule in decades...

400 hrs, 300 sb's, 1500 rbi. Only 3 players to do it. Mays, Dawson and Bonds. Well, actually 2 players. One of them was juiced

Sneakin' suspicion....you're probably pretty dumb looking yourself.....just a hunch.
