A great group of deserving inductees, and glad to see a few of my nominees in there! The HOVG continues to be one of my favorite aspects of the PFRA!

Very deserving group. Congrats to all

Art Powell gets his due. Guy was an absolute monster.

Deron Cherry is borderline Hall of Fame. Right on that cusp with guys like Klecko.

I like Craig. Is he first ballot or was he eligible last year?

He was eligible last year, but did not make the Final 20 for voting.

He may be blackballed [add emoji indicating I'm not serious here] - I had actually assumed he was in years ago because Neal Rozendaal's pre-war snubs mentions he got Latone from PFRA.
