Message: [QUOTE="Thelmus, post: 2963811, member: 8988"] I like the idea of waiting until their 60th birthdays. I also thinks it prevents player hype, or controversies from distorting the selection. That said, with johns' selection, the horse has already bolted. I have a huge problem with some of the selectors voting. They should be apart from big media and not be seen to discriminate the selection based on the individual's association with that media or a competitor and it's impact on their "brand" (I despise that term!). To do so risks cheapening the concept to little more than a PR exercise (ironic considering the concepts origin). Even though it was started as exactly that, thise in charge had the good sense to keep the original selections small in number, from a tight pool of ex-players with a large concensus of approval.
