| Message | I was 10 years old growing up in Lafayette, LA, (the hometown of Ron Guidry), so of course, every 10-year-old kid I knew idolized Ron Guidry. Ron was certainly a great one and always a class act, but for me, as both a 10 year old little league catcher, (and a summer-long player in the neighborhood's daily dawn-to-dusk pick-up games), Thurman Munson was my guy - the ONLY baseball player that I have EVER idolized. I cried like a baby when Thurman died and to this day, to me, his is a name that represents all that was good about baseball and that Yankee dynasty. God Bless Thurman Munson & VOTE 'M IN! |

| Message | I graduated high school in 1977. I was a good glove no hit catcher in high school. My heros were Bench, Fisk and Munson. All great catchers, but the difference being, Munson was a great leader Truly the glue that held a very contentious Yankee team together. When I think of Thurman, I think "what if". We'll never know. All we have left are the memories of as tough a player as ever played the game. That he wasn't inducted shortly after his death was a terrible injustice. Gerhig was Clemente was, why not Munson!!!!!! |

| Message | If Kirby Puckett gets in after only playing 10 years why not Thurman. Thurman was the best at his position and he deserves his rightful place in the HoF. It's not breaking any rules to put him in, and it's the least the HoF andf MLB could do for him and his family. I was at a Columbus Clippers game the day he died. Sadness!! |

| Message | Way overdue,put him in the hall immediately.He did a lot in those 10 years and would have done a lot more if he had lived. His numbers would have surpassed bench. |

| Message | Also a genuine Thurman Munson fan. Was stationed in the Navy over in Guam when his plane crashed. I was stunned and definetly shed my share of tears. He was a great team player, which of course made THE choice for "team captain". We needed more baseball players with his character, not only then but for sure today. With the commissioner and owners turning a blind eye to our illegal substance issues, Thurman would have taken care of any of these problems in the clubhouse. This of course would have gotten press only because guys like Steinbrenner would have tried to impress their will, looking of course for more money at the gate. Thurman HAS been overlooked. Like your information says, his lifetime stats along with World Series stats should gain him enough appreciation to rightfully be honored in the "Baseball Hall of Fame". |

| Message | I firmly believe that Thurman deserves to inducted in the Hall of Fame. His record, although cut short, speaks for itself. He was a great player and individual, both on and off the field. |
