He keeps begging and begging, but let me just say, I don't think he has a leg to stand on.

Listen. The basbeall HOF is not like some of the other sports HOF's - it's tough to get your foot in the door.

This is his 16th or 17th try so he should have a leg up on the competition.

BTW, I am having a great time ripping on people in the Facebook group "Ron Santo Belongs in the Hall of Fame". Check out these great quotes:

"Ron Santo is the biggest fan of the Cubs.There is no one else who truly bleeds cubby blue as much as Ronny Santo. Pat Hughes is the voice of the Cubs but Ron Santo is the heart and soul of the team day after day. Ron Santo is the reason I wake up in the morning. I admire his spirit because he's one of the only people in this world who faces constant disappointment year after year after year after year but keeps a constant sunny disposition in life. GOD bless Ron Santo. He will be in the Hall of Fame eventually. You're already in my Hall of Fame Ronny!!!!"

"He is deserving more than any cubs player."

"Anyone with any sort of baseball knowledge knows that Ron Santo has done more for MLB and the Chicago Cubs than any other player/coach/broadcaster affiliated with any other team in any other sport."

"Mike - everrybody who's anybody says Ron never complains about his medical condition."

"I know of no one more devoted to baseball than Ron Santo"

Cubs fans continue to disappoint me greatly.

From past experiences, you almost have to conclude, that he hasn't a leg to stand on.

Sometimes you make ridiculous statements, but at least you have a sense of humor.

I'm just waiting for the day where Ronnie gets so excited that he takes off his legs and uses them as thundersticks.

Reminds me of a story about a regular at the golf course I used to work at...someone was giving him shit so he told this guy next to him to brace himself...the guy was like "what the hell" but he said just do it, so he did...he leaned against him and proceeded to remove his fake leg and whip it at the guy giving him shit...

I loved the Sopranos epidsode where Tony slept with the one legged Svetlana...hot for a chick with one leg that smokes.
