I’m not surprised by anything except Raines’ poor showing.<\/p>\n

My tally’s estimates were within five percentage points of the actual figures for five of the top six guys; I’m pleased with that. I ended up a high on the three main stathead favorites (Bly, Rock, Tram), and low on the three guys who really don’t have any business in the Hall (Rice, Morris, Smith). Assuming I do this again next year, I’ll try to identify a few more retired voters, since that’s a good chunk (as many as 200?) of the voter pool.<\/p>\n

But seriously, who the fuck voted for Shawon Dunston?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
