Failure to understand that the HOF is in no way obligated to follow MLB's lead on this issue runs rampant. Last night on the 6:00pm news in Louisville, one of the news anchors followed up the sports report with a comment about Selig "letting Pete into the Hall..."
Is anyone lobbying the HOF to change its rules back to the way they were before Pete was banned? I think they're the ones who should give in, not MLB.
