If they care this little about the integrity of the game, why should they pretend to care who gets into the HOF and why?

That
golden at bat idea was probably brought up after a long night of drinking and smoking whatever it is that causes thoughts like this to be even mentioned out loud after the alcohol bottles and bong bowls have been emptied.
That idea is a golden turd... if there's any serious consideration to it, I think I'll look for another favorite sport.
