Obviously I have tilted opinion of this Lenny. If I take myself out of my situation and just say that he has multiple world Championships under his belt, a U.S Open Champion, 11 time player of the year, Player of the decade, he has won almost every major Pro chmpionship at least once and that he is to this day STILL the number one ranked US Player after 20+ years at the top. He is a great ambassador for the sport who does not, drink, smoke or do drugs. He has represented the U.S.A 13 times as a Mosconi Cup Team Member and just an all round nice guy.
I see no reason why Johnny (The Scorpion) Archer should not be in the Hall of Fame. I think he deserves it.

Out of everything you said, that means the most to me.

IMHO he is one of the best things that happened to pool.
 
The sad thing is that there may not be a "Class of 2009" going into the HOF. Johnny should definitely be a first ballot HOFer, but with the BCA not holding an induction dinner it could be tough this year.

Also keep in mind that Allison and Ralf would be on the ballot with Johnny this year if there is an election.

I agree Mike,Allison and Ralf are awesome players but Johnny should be a lock for the spot and actually might be more qualified then others already in it. :)
