1. Tom is a Doofwongle Posted: April 25, 2021 at 11:36 AM (#6015250)Whoever takes over at the Hall will have to restore a bit of public trust in the institution -- so many of the steroids-era players not in, while second-tier 1970s-1980s players have been inducted. And the Hall might examine its role in making the game more appealing to younger fans.
Assumes facts not in evidence. With regard to the alleged (and some confirmed) roiders, I see no evidence that the "public" (i.e. the people who actually generate revenue for the HoF) are particularly upset by their absence. I'd be flummoxed if there were more than 2 such people who are sufficiently offended by Baines's presence to stay away.
Glad someone said this. Other than Induction Day, who goes to the Hall of Fame just to visit the plaque room? You can find plenty of memorabilia by Rose, Bonds, etc., on display elsewhere in the Hall.
