Steve Miller wants to tear down the RRHOF

“I don’t want to be a belong to any club that will accept me as a member.”
Ok, that Groucho Marx quote isn’t exactly accurate, but Steve Miller still isn’t happy about being in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
As we discussed previously, Miller was quite vocal about his distaste for the 2016 Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Ceremony, of which he was finally inducted after a long wait. Miller infamously railed on the Hall at the post ceremony press conference but on the Howard Stern Show, he had a lot more to say:
“It's gonna get better. I'm gonna get these guys. They're gonna be sorry that they treated all these people this way…I'm planning to keep it in the news. I'm planning to investigate them. I've already got all of their public documents. I want to see where they're spending the money. I wanna see who's being paid. I wanna check it all out ... The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame's actually going to go to Cleveland. The Museum's actually gonna mean something. The funding they raise is actually gonna be used for music education before I'm done."
Miller trashed the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame committee, calling them “fucked-up” and “inbred”.
Is this the rambling of a cranky old man or is Miller on to something with the Rock and Roll Hall?
Either way, it will always be interesting in Cleveland.

Tim Raines: Still Hopeful

Every year, we here at Notinhalloffame.com champion former Montreal Expos Outfielder, Tim Raines, as a bona fide Baseball Hall of Famer.
This past week, Raines was in Chicago to celebrate the 25th anniversary of U.S. Cellular Field and was the most optimistic he has ever been for the Baseball Hall of Fame despite entering his tenth and final year of eligibility.
Raines had the following to say:
"This is probably the first year out of the nine years that I've been on the ballot that I really, really feel like I have a chance…I think about it a lot more than I ever have in the past.
If I don't (get in), it's not the end of the world…I would love for it to happen. But coming now to this point, being my last year on the ballot and being so close, it's getting a little nerve-wracking. I think those nerves are starting to set in. I just can't wait until it's over now."
Raines is coming off a 2016 vote of 69.8 percent, which is the farthest by far that he has received.
We here at Notinhalloffame.com have had Raines ranked in the top twelve since our website’s inception and are hopeful that the former leadoff sensation will enter Cooperstown next year.
Will he get in?
Tim Raines and his Montreal Expos teammates hopes so.
So do we!
