I'm still not sure why you keep bringing Mussina into a discussion about Rivera's HOF worthiness. I'm sure most people would agree Mussina is more HOF worthy than Rivera. But that has nothing to do with whether Rivera should be in or not. As has been stated multiple times, there is room for both.
I just used Mussina as an example. He was better than Rivera. If you think Rivera is a slam dunk, Mussina is too.
Rivera is, or at least will be, a slam dunk when he appears on the ballot.
Mussina, on the other hand, is in his fourth year on the ballot at 43%. Do you consider that a "slam dunk" in your magical world of rainbows and unicorns?
