8. Curt Schilling If it’s possible to put his myriad post-retirement controversies aside, there shouldn’t be any controversy over his on-field greatness.

Yes he has actually made some conservative statements and was pro-Trump. The horror!

I could list many many Hall of Fame residents across several sports (Lawrence Taylor? Ty Cobb?) who had serious off-the-field issues. Why should Schilling be punished?

So what’s the deal? Do we evaluate only the performance on the field? If so then Clemens and Bonds would be in.

I heard Omar Visquel (sp?) Lost some support among Hall o Fame.voters based on domestic violence allegations.

And we hear how Curt Schilling has lost support due to politcs.
