im still stuck on how someone voted david segui for HOF.

It's stuff like this, and looking at some of the guys not in, and hearing the voters who refuse to vote anyone on the first ballot, and just the overall logical fallacy that a player is more deserving to be honored 10 years after they retire than 9 years that really has lead me to say who cares about the hall of fame. Its just a building. I don't need a bunch of arrogant baseball writers to tell me who the great players of the past where, I can look at what happened, study the stats, read the stories of the players who shaped the game and determine for myself which players really stood out and deserve to be remembered.
