    This year's Rock and Roll HOF class

    The Cars and Dire Straits get in, along with Moody Blues (way too serious), Nina Simone, and, as an early influence, Sister Rosetta Tharpe.

    Oh, and some Italian group from New Jersey, Bongiorno or something.

    Moody Blues was WAY overdue.

    Hopefully Slaughter gets in before Winger.
    When I see the 2016 Reds, I see a 100 loss team and no direction.

    I can only hope that Soundgarden gets the call one day.

    As far as I'm concerned, the HOF has lost it's "uniqueness".

    Stunned Radiohead didn't make it. Figured them for a first ballot lock. Bummed Judas Priest didn't make it, but the HOF has inherited Rolling Stone's metal blind spot.

    At least it finally woke up on the Cars.

    That's because nobody actually enjoys listening to Radiohead.

    Radiohead should only be allowed in if they are forced to play Creep at the induction ceremony.

    If Nirvana and Pearl Jam are in, Soundgarden has to go. A shame it's too late.

    Championships for MY teams in my lifetime:
    Cincinnati Reds - 75, 76, 90
    Chicago Blackhawks - 10, 13, 15
    University of Kentucky - 78, 96, 98, 12
    Chicago Bulls - 91, 92, 93, 96, 97, 98

    Whatever you do, do your best to not allow the struggles of life to interfere with the pleasures of living.

    I still say that if the Hall wanted to induct a parody act, they should have gone with Weird Al.

    What you got against Joan Jett?

    Always seemed to me her case was more style and influence.
