Each season, when a new Hall of Fame ballot comes out, the inevitable debates begin. Why should I vote for this person over that person? Well, we here at GutterAlley want to help make it easier for you to understand.Now, keep in mind, there is no guaranteed path to making it into the Hall of Fame. Voters are left to cast their votes for the nominee(s) for whichever candidate they choose based upon whatever criteria they value the most. While some may favor those who have accomplished the most on the lanes (highest game, most titles, etc.), others champion those who have done the most for the league off the lanes (recruitment, longevity, etc.). The Hall of Fame Screening Committee tries to balance these two in order to present the voting community with the best of both worlds...and sometimes both.Here's a breakdown comparison chart of each bowler across a number of categories:
