00:00Howard, are there any changes you think are coming when it comes to the voting process?
00:05Do you think the Hall of Fame is talking and looking at still with some of the ways that maybe
00:11they could change that process, maybe to get more guys in and not put you guys in a box?
00:18We're hoping so.
00:19Many of the selectors do.
00:22My understanding is there's things being presented to the board of directors, and they might have been presented on Friday
00:28at their annual meeting.
00:30During Hall of Fame weekend, and so we could see things.
00:33I would think if there's changes, there could be things coming down that we'll find out in the next couple
00:37of weeks, and we all hope that that happens, and we'll see.
00:44The thing is, at one point when they expanded, the seniors being considered to three, which I'm pretty sure was
00:52in 2022, it was said that we're fine if there's larger classes.
00:57Then all of a sudden, a couple of years ago, the feeling was, well, the classes are getting too big.
01:01Well, which isn't?
01:03Which isn't?
01:03And so I think there's a happy medium there somewhere, but I think there's just overall, last year there were
01:10only four that were elected overall.
01:12This year it's five.
01:14And I think maybe they make them, you know, and the minimum is one from the group of five, and
01:19the minimum is three from the modern-day guys.
01:22So you have to have at least four.
01:24And the maximum, I think, is, oh, boy, I think it's eight or six, something like that, that the max
01:33can get in.
01:34But I think if they put the minimum numbers up to six, yeah, that's the minimum.
01:40But, well, the minimum, like I'm saying, the minimum is four.
01:45But I think that it would be good to get some more in.
01:49And if they want to reduce it from eight or nine that it's been, you can find ways to do
01:52it.
01:53But, like I said, we're all hoping there'll be some, you know, tweaks to the system because it's really changed
01:59things the last two years, like I said.
