It's unfortunate that John presented this as a "PFRA poll" or "PFRA vote" given that many of the people who post here, including regulars, don't belong to the PFRA. In addition, the PFRA has about 500 members. To me, it's beyond silly to present the votes of about ten people some of whom, as mentioned, aren't even members, as a "PFRA vote" or "PFRA poll."

Last, John was wrong about the four Super Seniors that the PFRA advocated for the Hall of Fame some years ago. Those four were Dilweg, Slater, Speedie and Wistert. It did NOT include Lewellen or Emerson, who the PFRA has never endorsed for the HOF.
