No Beefs

Last week Bert Blyleven and Roberto Alomar were elected to the baseball Hall of Fame. Blyleven gets in on his 14th try, Alomar on his second.
I understand Alomar getting the nod in his second year. Although he was probably worthy of being a first-ballot Hall of Famer, his spitting incident in 1996 with umpire John Hirshbeck probably soured the writers from voting for him in year one. Plus, he has somewhat of a sullied off the field image in his retirement with rumors of having HIV and having unprotected sex with two women who have filed lawsuits against him.
Blyleven is a different story. If writers didn't feel he was a Hall of Fame in years ago, why now? Did his stats get better?
If he is a Hall of Famer now, wouldn't he have been a Hall of Famer in, say, year three? Seven?
On Sunday's show, Andy Cornell said that Blyleven should be in the broadcasters wing of the Hall of Fame for his infamous F-bomb on live TV during a pre-game show that he thought was being taped. Ooops!
One of my major complaints about the voting process is that broadcasters are not part of it. Or do the writers feel that guys like Vin Scully, Marty Brennaman and other veteran announcers aren't qualified. I'd rather Vin Scully get a chance to vote than half the writers.
Also, how does a writer vote for a guy one year and not another year?
Strange. But I'm happy for Blyleven especially. Nasty curveball that Dutchman, nasty curveball.
