I want to see what folks think of the work of various incarnations of the Veteran's Committee. We've already got threads on the "Lee Allen" VC and the "Frankie Frisch" VC. Eventually, I'll report the results of all the polls.
I will ask that only folks who are knowledgeable about the Negro Leagues vote in this poll, so as not to unfairly prejudice the comparison of these selections to other incarnations of the "Veteran's Committee".
I will also point out that some men, such as Andy Cooper, Jose Mendez, and Sol White had success as managers and/or as important figures in the Negro Leagues outside of their playing, and such contributions should be considered, as they apparently were by the group actually doing the voting.
