It seems to me that he struck a deal with someone or perhaps several someones.

What a shame that simple-minded reporters like King are given such power. If he's going to coaches to get their opinions, why don't we just let the coaches vote?

At any rate, it's great that Monk will finally be honored. Now it will be interesting to see what happens with Darell Green and Russ Grimm. Is it going to take 6 or 7 years to get them in?

Which coaches? Past, present, both?

I have said it before and I'll say it again, the writers voting for HOF is not perfect but it the best way to do it.
