is that a 5.0 joke or something?
Was Kurland not profile worthy?

I hate when people get super picky about who goes in and who doesn't
If they aren't like an obvious troll profile and someone wants to memorialize them then put them in.
I think I voted no on like maybe a handful of profiles in all of 6.0

I think some of the creation file guys need to be looked at with a different lense.
With that said Bob did miss a large chunk of one season that further hurts his chances.
I think he's worthy of a profile and vote.
I voted yes because of his great shooting percentages along with being a +bleals over turnover big man

I just can't vote him in, his numbers weren't good enough to make up for the short career. Creation great, but not HOF imo

Yep, very good player but I can’t look past 18/9 for his career.
