One has absolutely, positively nothing to do with the other. Voters decided to make a completely indefensible stand in '99. 12 years later, they did not (or in actuality, fewer of them did).
Evan Grant is the same guy who left Pedroia off his ballot completely in '08. He says he'll be explaining his actions on the Dallas Morning News website later today. I'm not holding my breath, as he said the same thing three years ago, and we're still waiting.
