2. So sad that...

the joke that is the RRHOF waited so long that Mick Ralphs died FIVE MONTHS before Bad Co. could be inducted and Paul Rodgers is in such ill health that he can't go either. They've been eligible (and imminently deserving) for DECADES.

Sure, Salt n' Pepa and the Beastie Boys are in, but they JUST now got around to Bad Company, Joe Cocker and Chubby Checker, and still haven't recognized either The Monkees or The Sweet, two of the most influential rock bands of the 60s/70s (and, in each case, just one member of the classic lineups who produced countless hits even remains should RRHOF suddenly get their sh!t together). Sad.
