The deadline for voting on the Veterans Ballot has been extended until Monday, November 17. Remember the question is who do you think should make it, not who will make it. Based on the ballots counted so far, no player has the required 75% of the votes required for election.
Here are the players on the 2 ballots. You can vote for up to 4 players on each ballot.

Thanks, Jeff. Believe me, Marion is one of the first places I looked. The reason he didn't come close to making the list is that he had been mentioned on MVP...
