Kurt, My apologies for not bothering to read all that. Usually what you say is interesting, but I'm beyond pros and cons concerning this individual. I'm first to vote, so I am proud to be the first to vote "NO." No admission for this fellow, not as a man, not as a teammate, not as a ballplayer. A poster child for "Me First" mentality, he is leaving the game worse for having been a part of it. Even some humility and contrition would have counted in his favor but no, not from him. Be gone.

They were 68-20 at home that year (including playoffs and World Series) in the original Yankee Stadium (1923-2008), "Where Players Became Legends."
