My apologies to Runningman...

...but I've been a little preoccupied lately. Actually, I have been a basket-case lately.

Anyhow, on with the show. I would like to fully agree with Runningman's picks for the TST HOF.
- Chuck Norris is a man, a myth, and a legend. What can be said about Chuck Norris that hasn't already been said (literally).

- Hank Aaron is awe inspiring. Besides, he didn't punk out and follow Bonds around until he hit the record-breaking HR. You hear me Selig?

As for the TST Douchebag HOF:
- Criss Angel is fighting Jose Canseco for the definition of douchebaggery. He looks like a douchebag, he acts like a douchebag, and he makes a living being a douchebag. He's the kind of guy that I want to punch just because of the way he looks.

-Brady Anderson - HR's by season:
1988 - 1
1989 - 4
1990 - 3
1991 - 2
1992 - 21
1993 - 13
1994* - 12
1995 - 16
1996 - 50
1997 - 18
1998 - 18
1999 - 24
2000 - 19
2001 - 8
2002 - 1

Let me take that a step further...AB/HR:
1988 - 325.0
1989 - 66.5
1990 - 78.0
1991 - 128.0
1992 - 29.7
1993 - 43.1
1994* - 37.8
1995 - 34.0
1996 - 11.6
1997 - 32.8
1998 - 26.6
1999 - 23.5
2000 - 26.6
2001 - 53.8
2002 - 80.0

How does this compare to the known 'roid lads in their heyday (in AB/HR)?
Anderson '96 - 11.6
McGwire '98 - 7.3
Sosa '99 - 9.9
Bonds '02 - 6.5

Anderson ranks right up there with the likes of McGwire, Sosa and Bonds...right? Isn't that the type of player you think of when you think of Brady Anderson???
