Message: [QUOTE="RF2044, post: 5653263, member: 40"] Maybe for some. The writer I was referring to explained his rationale as having nothing to do with that. Essentially, in the G5 category, there were three older legacy players -- along with Belichick and Kraft. All three of the players were allegedly in their final year of eligibility, so the writer opted to vote for them to give them one last shot. He explainined that for him, it wasn't about "penalizing" Belichick or excluding him or Kraft -- it was only due to the stupid HOF rules that restricted him to voting only for 3 of the 5. He also thought it was weird that Kraft / Belichick were both on the same ballot for the first time, because it would be like voting for the same thing twice. But he said that "spygate" didn't factor in for him at all, it was only because he was forced into only voting for 3 of the G5 candidates. [/QUOTE]
